Don't fly to high my little bird

You will burn your wings
D
When you reach for the sun

Your lonley cry it won't be heard

You'll be tumbling down to the ground

Becsuse his broken wings would never mend again
[Chorus]

You will burn your wings

When you reach for the sun

Don't fly to high my little bird

Your lonley cry it won't be heard

You'll be tumbling down to the ground
