Verses:
1. Now and then behind the rows
2. Now and then when they're at rest
3. But then again behind the rows
1. Of pearly teeth and fashion clothes
2. Flocked in sleep in cuckoo's nests
3. She feels the piercing looks of those
1. She sees them in the mirror-tiles
2. Feeling safe no need to hide
3. Who watch her every move in case
1. Trying on their latest smiles
2. She opens doors and windows wide
3. She happens to forget her place
1. Light and warmth from spotlight beams
2. And poised upon her painted claws
3. Who sum her up deny her flight
su
1. Convincing them their nightmare is a dream
2. She stretches out her gaudy wings and soars
3. Aim their words and shoot her down on sight
Chorus:
Far away
#5
Borne by the wind
She roams the sky
#5
No one to say too low too high
Or count the lonely miles
#5
that she has flown
This world is hers alone
