Yesterday I saw the ghost Of my shaded past He was standing by my window Looking kind of lost He said : “I’ve travelled through the oceans Of time and space Just to say I love you I still can’t forget”
I didn’t even stop to listen I had my things to do So I just kept on walking Staring at my shoes I guess I didn’t have the courage To look him in the face Then I heard his voice Crying at my back
And he said: You’re a strange bird You sang so sweet then you flew away You’re a weird flame You made me warm till I got burnt Oh! you’ll pay for this one day
When I got home it was late at night Nothing on TV So I just dived into the silence With a cup of tea Somehow I couldn’t rest my mind When I was in bed I still heard these words Rattling in my head
And he said: You’re a strange bird You sang so sweet then you flew away You’re a weird flame You made me warm till I got burnt Oh! you’ll pay for this one day
I woke up early in the morning Blinded by the Sun I never felt so empty and so lonely In my life I’ve left so many ghosts behind me Just to save my self Now I’m all alone And that’s the price I pay
I’m a strange bird I sing so sweet then I fly away I’m a weird flame I’ll make you warm Till you get burnt I just look for Love Does it make me bad? We all look for Love But it’s not always there
