Bic Runga - Birds lyrics

rate me

Take your time

Make peace with the day

Lie on the ground and think of me

Nevermind what people will say

Talking is thoughtless and cheap

I only said it to be kind

I wont pretend to be naive

And thoughts arrive...

Like leaves on the page

Trying and hoping to be

You and I like birds in a cage

Dreaming how once we were free

The evening closes on the

I saw you hiding in the eaves

Don't leave me hanging on the wire

A shadow underneathe the trees

I only want you to be mine

I only want you to be free

If either one of us is right

It must be seen to be believed

I only want you to be mine

I only want you to be free
