[00:00.000] 作曲 : Halie Loren Smith
[00:01.000] 作词 : Halie Loren Smith
[00:09.000] In a world before maps, holding breadcrumbs of courage,
[00:14.000] we ran into the day —
[00:19.000] trying to catch wild birds with our tiny bare hands
[00:24.000] and an open-door cage.
[00:27.000] Like many adventurers, I soon discovered that fate
[00:33.000] wasn’t always a friend.
[00:37.000] Under swaying trees, gravity conjured the scar on my knee
[00:42.000] and a lesson remembered:
[00:43.000]
[00:48.000] That the wild birds belong to no one.
[00:57.000] And the child learned Nature will humble us all in the end.
[01:00.000]
[01:16.000] We sat on that stone by the ocean for years without fear,
[01:22.000] without thinking at all.
[01:25.000] We cried at the news that it became a burial ground
[01:31.000] when the sea came to call.
[01:35.000] That night, the seagulls were glowing like angels sent down
[01:41.000] to comfort our souls —
[01:44.000] with the moon and two new burning bright stars aglow on the waves
[01:49.400] eternally rolling.
[01:50.000]
[01:52.000] And the wild birds belong to no one.
[02:02.000] And the tide turns forever, finding us all in the end.
[02:10.000]
[02:12.000] Are we the only ones who don’t understand
[02:21.000] we’re but shadows upon an eternal land?
[02:30.000] Are we the only ones who don’t understand
[02:40.000] we’re but shadows upon an eternal land?
[02:50.000]
[02:54.000] Weaving through miles of darkness and canyons,
[02:58.000] in need of just getting lost…
[03:03.000] to find us a place we could patch up our hearts
[03:07.000] where no one would tally the cost.
[03:12.000] Down by a crystalline river, a broken-winged dove
[03:17.000] sat alone on the bank…
[03:21.000] We kept watch until nightfall, but knew it was out of our hands —
[03:27.000] some things we can’t make right.
[03:29.000]]
[03:30.000] And the wild birds belong to no one.
[03:39.000] And the wild birds, they live the language of Letting Go.
[03:49.000] The wild birds belong to no one.
[03:58.000] Oh, the wild birds can show us everything we need to know.
