We lay still in the grass watching parakeets
Flying in and out of closed windows
And you said "You can't solve my problems
Neither can I solve yours"
We'll never be as beautiful as the parakeets
In Istanbul
And we'll never be impossible
And do impossible things
Now we hang out in Japanese gardens
Collect shiny things for our nest
We're just like blackbirds
The darkness painted to our chests
Now our collection's nearly finished
We've got bad luck tokens, diamond rings
And gold teeth
And you say "Can it get darker?"
Well I see your shadow down beneath
And we'll never be as beautiful as the parakeets in Istanbul
We'll never be impossible like the parakeets in Istanbul
We'll never be as beautiful as the parakeets in Istanbul
We'll never be impossible like the parakeets in Istanbul
We'll never be as beautiful as the parakeets in Istanbul
We'll never be impossible like the parakeets in Istanbul
We'll never be as beautiful as the parakeets in Istanbul
We'll never be impossible like the parakeets in Istanbul
We'll never be as beautiful as the parakeets in Istanbul
We'll never be impossible like the parakeets in Istanbul
