Lyrics
Two romantic
Little birds
Runaway from home
Years and years
They planned to fly
But wings would never grow
Let's go and find them on our own
Let's leave it all behind
Young and brave the two of us
We'll sing this every night
Give us wings
Give us wings
We want to see the world
A thousand miles they walked alone
Through and through the fields
Climbed up in the mountains
And swam with the seals
On the darkest night in a hundred years
They fell of a cliff
Fast as they were falling down
Their feathers began to lift
We have wings
We have wings!
It's time to fly away!
In seconds they were in the sky
Higher than the stars
But soon they felt a loneliness
Not happy in their hearts
"Oh maybe we should go back home"
They said, and made a twist
Look, two little birds down there
They seem to be flightless
Take our wings
Take our wings
'cause we are going home
Take our wings
Take our wings
Go fly up in the world
