Lyrics
When the Swallow
Flew into my room
She sliced through the slumber
Cut open my cocoon
Said drop everything
Hold onto my wings
You forgot to sing
To the sun and the moon
Oh Swallow, that travels over the seas
Tell me the message
You go carrying on the breeze
I see your freedom
And I admire your will
Are the cages we build ourselves
What you're out to kill?
I'm here today
Under your skies
When I lose my way
Won't you open my eyes?
I am nothing more
Than a free bird in disguise
Every year, you're returning
And my heart goes yearning
To spread my wings
But we humans are the masters
Of complicating everything
I'm here today
Under your skies
When I lose my way
Open my eyes
I am nothing more
Than a free bird in disguise
I'm here today
I'm here today
I'm here today
