Miss Saigon movie - The Sacred Bird lyrics
rate me<br>
(In KIM's room she has dressed TAM in his best clothes. <br>
She lights candles at her family shrine, then picks up the photo of her parents.)<br>
<br>
[KIM]<br>
From this picture I keep<br>
You, my parents, look out<br>
And you smiles show no scorn<br>
I am happy today<br>
For I know what to do<br>
And my heart is not torn<br>
Spirits know when to fly<br>
When it's time<br>
There's no reson to mourn<br>
For the great sacred bird is reborn<br>
<br>
From the ashes he'll rise<br>
And upon his wide wings<br>
I'll watch you from above<br>
I will never be far<br>
But my son, it's your turn<br>
To know your father's love<br>
I know now why I came<br>
To this earth<br>
It's so you find your place<br>
But for that I must leave your embrace<br>
<br>
You will be with <br>
Your father now<br>
Give all your love to him<br>
When I am gone<br>
Take one last look at me<br>
Don't forget what you see<br>
For now you must move on<br>
<br>
You will be who you want to be - you<br>
Can choose whatever heaven grants<br>
As long as you can have your chance<br>
I swear I'll give my life for you<br>
<br>
No one will stop what I mjst do<br>
My son, I'll give my life for you<br>
<br>
(She kisses TAM, prays before the shrine, <br>
hears people approching, blows out the candles.<br>
She checks to see that it is CHRIS comming.<br>
She gives TAM a toy, and disappears behond the bed curtain)<br>
