[Verse 1]
They gather together on fields
Where the fog still basks in the morning light
Their new feathers shimmer
And the water beads across them
While the day breaks
And then they ascend
After an unseen signal
Fly, bird, fly...
[Chorus:]
And we look into the sky
It's imminent
During every year upon this spot at the same time
The migrating birds make a V in the sky
And we stare at them until we can't recognize the V anymore
Before long, they block out sun
Fly in circles, searching for their direction
5 Billion with the same goal
We're a little like the birds
Over mountains and rivers
We don't fly because we can,
But rather because we need to
[Chorus]
[Verse 1]
[Chorus]
And the birds will fly until they are sure
That they feel something in the cold wind beneath them
That this region here
Is their home
For a while, until the next time the fall begins
Until the fall begins
Until the fall begins
