The Song of the Bird

 They bought a round for the sailor
And he told them a tale
Of a world that was so far away
And a song that they'd
A song of a little bird
fell in love with a whale
He said, 'You cannot live in the ocean'
And she said to him
'You never can live in the sky'
But the ocean is filled with tears
And the sea turns into a mirror
There's a whale in the moon when it's clear 

And the bird on the tide


Please don't cry
Let me dry your eyes
So tell me that you will wait for me
Hold me in your arms
I promise we never will part
I'll never sail back to the time
But I'll always pretend you're mine
Though I know that we both must part
You can live in my heart
Please don't cry
Let me dry your eyes
And tell me that you will wait for me
Hold me in your arms
I promise we never will part
I'll never sail back to the time
But I'll always pretend that you're mine
Though I know that we both must part
You can live in my heart ... (Tom Waits)

Danke liebe Dorry, schade ... man kann es nicht so gut erkennen auf dem Foto, aber in diese Perle kann man versinken ☺.

Multumesc draga Fifi, asa de mult ma bucur de fiecare data, cand te "vad" aici ☺.
