Two romantic Little birds Runaway from home Years and years They planned to fly But wings would never grow Let's go and find them on our own Let's leave it all behind Young and brave the two of us We'll sing this every night Give us wings Give us wings We want to see the world [2x] A thousand miles they walked alone Through and through the fields Climbed up in the mountains And swam with the seals On the darkest night in a hundred years They fell of a cliff
Fast as they were falling down Their feathers began to lift We have wings We have wings! It's time to fly away! [2x] In seconds they were in the sky Higher than the stars But soon they felt a loneliness Not happy in their hearts "Oh maybe we should go back home" They said, and made a twist Look, two little birds down there They seem to be flightless Take our wings Take our wings 'cause we are going home Take our wings Take our wings Go fly up in the world
