Wild Birds

There shall be no more tears of frustration In the eyes of a girl or a boy May we play and be dancin' our worries away So we only must cry tears of joy We don't need no permission for freedom And we don't need no crown to be kings Like the child who is running right into the wild 'Till the day comes it's spreading the wings Wild birds are born to fly We've only sang of freedom Wild birds are born to fly Long enough we've been the tame Wild birds are born to fly To the sky, higher and higher To a place our hearts desire Wild birds are born to fly Higher I see faces in great desperation I see people, imprisoned in jail There's no bars that will keep 'em from chasing the stars But they still tell their unhappy tale So I tell em' to sit in the sunshine And I ask 'em to smell on the hay And I go: Only be like the birdie, you know Who is singing and praising the day There shall be no more tears of frustration In the eyes of a girl or a boy May we play and be dancin' our worries away So we only must cry tears of joy --- Wild Birds - Russkaja
