Two Birds

Two birds on a wire
One tries to fly away
And the other watches him close from that wire
He says he wants to as well, but he is a liar

I'll believe it all, there's nothing I won't understand
I'll believe it all, I won't let go of your hand

Two birds on a wire
One says c'mon and the other says "I'm tired.
The sky is overcast and I'm sorry."
One more or one less, nobody's worried

I'll believe it all, there's nothing I won't understand
I'll believe it all, I won't let go of your hand

Two birds of a feather
Say that they're always gonna stay together
But one's never going to let go of that wire
He says that he will, but he's just a liar

Two birds on a wire
One tries to fly away and the other
Watches him close from that wire
He says he wants to as well, but he is a liar

Two birds on a wire
Once tries to fly away and the other...
