In a colourful dress she's bustling
From time to time she turns her head
sending a smile
But you could swear
Yesterday you saw her wings
Oh how she hid them under her dress
However she
That's not a bird can't you see?
That's not a bird
She's not a bird
That's not a bird can't you see?
Every little movement spells I love you
But still you search for feathers in her rainbow lace
Because you're sure that
Yesterday you saw a winged shadow
That’s why you built a cage
However she
That's not a bird can't you see?
That's not a bird
She's not a bird
That's not a bird can't you see?
When the darkness steals your heart today
In the window she'll laugh through her tears
She'll let down her black hair and
Turn into a raven and jump out
The window for a moment
Only to return as a
Bird of paradise because it’s what you wanted
As a bird of paradise
Bird of paradise
As a bird of paradise because it’s what you wanted!
