Lonely bird, you are flying up so high in the sky,
In the anthracite heaven of dark moonless nights,
You are striking all dogs and all strays with dismay
By the beauty and span of your winged shoulders' sights.
You don't have any chicks, and you don't have a nest,
You are beckoned by star, sight unseen by the rest,
There's a grief in your eyes, that's unearthly and blue,
You're a strong bird but I'm feeling pity for you.
Lonely bird, lonely bluebird, you are flying up on high,
And just a madman could have fallen in such love spell,
And he followed you to heaven,
And he followed you to heaven,
Just to crash down with you
From heaven,
With you together,
With you together,
With you together,
With you together...
Somber angel of sorrow, let's stop, take a rest,
Let's relax on the boughs and keep quiet in peace.
What's out there in the sky that is worth it, attest,
To crash down on the hard rocks for you or for me.
Lonely bird, lonely bluebird, you are flying up on high,
And just a madman could have fallen in such love spell,
And he followed you to heaven,
And he followed you to heaven,
Just to crash down with you
From heaven,
With you together... (x8)
