see the morning light
|
it breaks the sky to the East
|
hear the birds above
|
announcing the light
|
like rays of love
|
hear the one who sings
|
az darkness clouds the Western sky
|
the one who sounds az though
|
he's weeping for his long lost lover
|
|
he's alone and sad
|
he betrays the bluest sounds
|
coming down
|
over the rooftops, into your dreams
|
that's just how that bird sings
|
|
all the way until
|
the heat of the nighttime still
|
at that hour
|
all of the dreams devour the senses
|
mothers keep your child
|
far from home, they will roam
|
run to trouble first
|
it iz what they thirst for
|
to quench their sorrow
|
|
he's alone and sad
|
he betrays the bluest sounds
|
coming down
|
over the rooftops, into your dreams
|
he will sing despite the approaching night
|
az though you know just what he means
|
i suppose
|
that's just how that bird sings . . .
