SHORT AND SWEET

 

Feel my hand lying on your chest

Calm your breath, breathe in and out

And I will comfort you and heal your pain

Where did you come from little bird?

Who made you feel so out of tune?

Your song is great and I am loving you

 

So, you see, it is an endless story:

Whoever spreads his wings to fly tumbles down in a while

You’ve seen the world with all its beauty

And its loss, so you’re lost, so lost,

Come and rest with me

Come close

 

My dearest, are you better now

Then go and fly away

And send me all those wounded little birds you find

 

Now, fly up in the sky

It is an endless story:

Whoever spreads his wings to fly tumbles down in a while

Go and see the world with all its beauty and its loss

And when you get lost again

Come back to me.
