Annie Lennox - Little Bird [single] (1992) by Annie Lennox (보컬) on maniadb.com

I look up to the little bird
That glides across the sky
He sings the clearest melody
It makes me want to cry
It makes me want to sit right down
and cry cry cry, yeah.

I walk along the city streets
So dark with rage and fear
And I...
I wish that I could be that bird
And fly away from here
I wish I had the wings to fly away from here, yeah.

But Mamma I feel so low
Mamma where do I go?
Mamma what do I know?
Mamma we reap what we sow
They always said that you knew best
But this little bird's fallen out of that nest now
I've got a feeling that it might have been blessed
So I've just got to put these wings to test

For I am just a troubled soul
Who's weighted...
Weighted to the ground
Give me the strength to carry on
Till I can lay this burden down
Give me the strength to lay this burden down
down down yea
Give me the strength to lay it down
Lay it down, Lay it down.

But Mamma I feel so low
Mamma where do I go?
Mamma what do I know?
Mamma we reap what we sow.
They always said that you knew best
But this little bird's fallen out of that nest now
I've got a feeling that it might have been blessed
So I've just got to put these wings to test

Come into these arms again
And lay your body down
There is among this trembling heart
Is beating like a drum

It beats for you
It bleeds for you
And knows not how it sounds

For it is the drum of drums
It is the song of songs

Once I had the fairest rose
That ever came to bloom
Cruel winter chills arrive
And stole my flower too soon

Oh loneliness
Oh hopelessness
To search the ends of time

For there is in all the world
No greater love than mine

Love...still falls the rain
Still falls the night
Be mine forever

Let me be the only one
To keep you from the cold
Now the flower fair as day
The stars of brightest tone

They shine for you
They shine for you
They burn for all to see

Come into these arms again
And set this spirit free

I look up to the little bird
That glides across the sky
He sings the clearest melody
It makes me want to cry
It makes me want to sit right down
and cry cry cry, yeah.

I walk along the city streets
So dark with rage and fear
And I...
I wish that I could be that bird
And fly away from here
I wish I had the wings to fly away from here, yeah.

Who's weighted...
Weighted to the ground
Give me the strength to carry on
Till I can lay this burden down
Give me the strength to lay this burden down
down down yea
Give me the strength to lay it down
Lay it down, Lay it down.
