If I was a bird

I would fly high over the world

Come home at night to your garden

Build a nest among the branches

And I'll comb your hair with my beak

If I was a bird

I would count my time in pearls

Under my wings you'll find shelter

You'll breed bugs and keep me well fed

And I proclaim the reason why I'll have to fly

But you wanted me to be a girl

Without feathers without urge

Then my wings quick dissappeared

And left was only fear

And I proclaim the reason why I'll have to fly

Proclaim the reason why I'll have to fly

I'll have to fly
