[Verse 1]
At the end of the day
Across a moonless sky
Comes a wide winged bird
Sent to close my eyes
When you kissed my lips
They were cold like mine
And you swore you loved me
'Till the day I died

There's a wide winged bird
Flying across the sky
Sent to carry your love
To me right on time
There's a wide winged bird
In the dead of the night
Come to show me you loved me
'Till the day I died

Sent to carry your love
To me right on time
There's a wide winged bird
In the dead of the night
Come to show me you loved me
'Till the day I died
[Outro]
At the end of the day
Across a moonless sky
Comes a wide winged bird
Sent to close my eyes
