Can I be your bird? I will sit on your shoulder And whisper in your ears My secret songs So that nobody else hears The softness of the air Dancing through your hair I will sing with my sweetest voice Hoping your choice falls on me And you don’t run away Leaving me flying in the nothingness Can I be your bird? I will sleep on your nightstand My head tucked under my wing At the spot, your alarm clock used to ring I will sing a secret melody Bringing you remedy In an early morning I will sing with my sweetest voice Hoping your choice falls on me And you don’t run away Leaving me flying in the nothingness Can I be your bird? I will patiently wait for you to finish Your dish and leave bread crumbs On your napkin. Just let it be! A drop of water from your glass Will bathe me I will sing with my sweetest voice Hoping your choice falls on me And you don’t run away Leaving me flying in the nothingness Can I be your bird? I will nest on your chest Build a home above your heart So when I depart And fly away in the nothingness Your soul will remember a song she heard Of someone who’s never been your bird

Birds
Can I be your bird? I will sit on your shoulder And whisper in your ears My secret songs So that nobody else hears The softness of the air Dancing through your hair I will sing with my sweetest voice Hoping your choice falls on me And you don’t run away Leaving me flying in the nothingness Can I be your bird? I will sleep on your nightstand My head tucked under my wing At the spot, your alarm clock used to ring I will sing a secret melody Bringing you remedy In an early morning I will sing with my sweetest voice Hoping your choice falls on me And you don’t run away Leaving me flying in the nothingness Can I be your bird? I will patiently wait for you to finish Your dish and leave bread crumbs On your napkin. Just let it be! A drop of water from your glass Will bathe me I will sing with my sweetest voice Hoping your choice falls on me And you don’t run away Leaving me flying in the nothingness Can I be your bird? I will nest on your chest Build a home above your heart So when I depart And fly away in the nothingness Your soul will remember a song she heard Of someone who’s never been your bird
