Nightbirds
Nightbirds Soar: A Poetic Journey Through Memories and Hope
Lyrics
My last ride from yours to mine
Reflecting on the last journey from your place to mine.
watch the night sky rising higher
Observing the night sky as it ascends higher.
I am weak and frozen inside
Feeling emotionally fragile and numb internally.
I watch the nightbirds, I watch the nightbirds
Continuously observing the nightbirds in the sky.
Fly, fly…
Repeated encouragement for the nightbirds to fly.
Over me, over you, over me
Expressing the spatial movement of the nightbirds over both individuals.
All we have are memories
Acknowledging that memories are all that remain.
I’ll try to keep them like a secret
Committing to keeping memories as private treasures.
Carried away from an autumn breeze
Being carried away by the wind, reminiscent of autumn.
I watch the nightbirds, I watch the nightbirds
Continued observation of the nightbirds in flight.
Fly, fly…
Reiteration of the desire for the nightbirds to fly.
Over me, over you, over me
Reaffirming the spatial movement of the nightbirds over both individuals.
I hope you’ll find what you’re looking for
Expressing hope for the other person's fulfillment.
Flying higher over the orange sky
Describing the nightbirds soaring higher in the orange sky.
I am here for a little while
Acknowledging a temporary presence in a particular space.
And watch the nightbirds, watch the nightbirds
Continuing to observe the flight of the nightbirds.
Fly, fly…
Repeating the call for the nightbirds to fly.
Over me, over you, over me
Restating the spatial movement of the nightbirds over both individuals.
I wonder where we will be
Expressing curiosity about the future and where they will end up.
In a few years
Contemplating the future, wondering if they will still be in the same place.
Maybe still in town or just our footprints on the ground
Considering the possibility of leaving only footprints behind.
Maybe we’ll meet one day
Speculating about a potential reunion in the future.
and watch the nightbirds, watch the nightbirds
Continuing to watch the nightbirds together.
Fly, fly, fly…
Repeating the encouragement for the nightbirds to fly.
Over me, over you, over me
Restating the spatial movement of the nightbirds over both individuals.
I’ll let you fly I’ll let us fly Let us fly
Granting permission for both individuals to fly freely.
