Lyrics

Birds


Two hearts, one valve
Pumping the blood, we were the flood, we were the body, and
Two lives, one life
Sticking it out, letting you down, making it right
Seasons, they will change, life will make you grow
Dreams will make you cry, cry, cry
Everything is temporary, everything will slide
Love will never die, die, die
I know that, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Birds fly in different directions
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
I hope to see you again
Sunsets, sunrises
Living in the dream, watching the leaves, changing the seasons
Some nights, I think of you
Reliving the past, wishing it'd last, wishing and dreaming
Seasons, they will change, life will make you grow
Death can make you hard, hard, hard
Everything is temporary, everything will slide
Love will never die, die, die
I know that, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Birds fly in different directions
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
I hope to see you again
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Birds fly in different directions
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
So fly high, so fly high
When the moon is looking down
Shining light upon your ground
I'm flying up to let you see
That the shadow cast is me
I know that, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Birds fly in different directions
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
I hope to see you again
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Birds fly in different directions
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
So fly high, so fly high
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
So fly high, so fly high
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
So fly high, so fly high
