Текст песни Birdie (Cathy Davey) с переводом

When my grandmother Bee was a girl she was told

Of a towering elm 300 years old

His branches were claws that pulled other trees down

He had roots growing wild to the neighbouring town

But his heart was as cruel as his looks would suggest

Because deep in his bark was a nest

Gonna write a letter to someone

Gonna write it eloquently

So when that someone gets it

It’ll paint a picture for me

Gonna paint them into the forest

Under rain clouds heavy as lead

And every leaf dead at their feet

And every animal fled

Fly away little birdie

Fly away my friend

Fly away little birdie

I’ll get you in the end

Gonna pull the night down from heaven

And squeeze the light from the moon

If he dare shine down on you

I’ll pop him like a balloon

Gonna flood your heart with a river

And sail right into your soul

And when I reach that blinding light

I’ll paint it blacker than coal

Fly away little birdie

Fly away my friend

Fly away little birdie

I’ll get yooooouuu
