If I were a bird I would be the smallest bird that I could be As weightless as the air I could change direction as a loose leaf No baggage No body full of bones No bones full of sorrow and guilt No bones of joy and love No love, no pain no hate no gain And I would just fly, fly away Fly, fly away Fly, fly, fly away So, so beautiful and cruel So cruel and beautiful So beautiful and cruel So cruel and beautiful Bright colours and endless movement Blue and green and iridescent and tangerine, tangerine Life's so pure
Life's so free And I would just fly, fly away Fly, fly away Fly, fly, fly away So, so beautiful and cruel So cruel and beautiful So beautiful and cruel So cruel and beautiful If I were a bird If I were a bird I would fly away If I were a bird If I were a bird Oh I would just fly, fly away Fly, fly away Fly, fly, fly away So, so beautiful and cruel So cruel and beautiful So beautiful and cruel So cruel and beautiful So cruel, so cruel, so cruel and beautiful So cruel, so cruel, so cruel and beautiful
