Just moments before the dawn It's their time to go One look and they entered the magic forest They're left alone
A strange weight surrounded them It felt like burned ice All branches like fingers they reach to catch them Leaving their marks
(Hey you little songbirds!) (Come here, little songbirds!) (We see you, little songbirds...) (And we'll keep you!) (Hey you little songbirds!) (Come here, little songbirds!) (We see you, little songbirds...) (And we'll keep you!)
Run for your life! She's getting closer Run for your life! You hear her breathing Run for your life! Her army's marching Run for your life! You feel her seeking Reaching you, hunting you Run for your life! She's getting closer Run for your life! You hear her breathing Run for your life! Her army's marching Run for your life! You feel her seeking Reaching you, hunting all of you!
They run deeper into the woods They wished they could fly In the moonlight They saw those lurking soldiers Creeping by
Her hunters were whispering And humming an old tune Like rolling, they passed those little seekers Leaving them alone
(Hey you, little songbirds!) (Come here, little songbirds!) (Where are you, little songbirds?) (Come, we'll keep you!)
(Hey you, little songbirds!) (Come here, little songbirds!) (Where are you, little songbirds?) (Come, we'll keep you!)
Run for your life! She's getting closer Run for your life! You hear her breathing Run for your life! Her army's marching Run for your life! You feel her seeking Reaching you, hunting you Run for your life! She's getting closer Run for your life! You hear her breathing Run for your life! Her army's marching Run for your life! You feel her seeking Reaching you, hunting all of you! ("Oh dear, children Who has brought you here? Do come in and stay with me No harm shall happen to you! ")
Run for your life! She's getting closer Run for your life! You hear her breathing Run for your life! Her army's marching Run for your life! You feel her seeking Reaching you, hunting you Run for your life! She's getting closer Run for your life! You hear her breathing Run for your life! Her army's marching Run for your life! You feel her seeking Reaching you, hunting all of you!
