Blue Bird
Flight of Freedom: Embracing Love Beyond the Sky
Lyrics
Okay I just made something pretty cool I think
Expressing excitement about creating something noteworthy.
Let me know what you think
Inviting feedback and seeking opinions on the created work.
Fly pretty blue bird fly
Encouraging a blue bird to fly, possibly metaphorical for freedom or escape.
Up to my window I
Describing the speaker's location, waiting for the blue bird.
Am hurting for your company
Expressing loneliness and a desire for the blue bird's companionship.
And I'm jealous of your wings
Feeling envious of the freedom symbolized by the bird's wings.
I promise if you don't go
Promising to cherish and hold the bird close if it stays.
I'll cherish you, hold you close
Reiterating a commitment to care for the bird.
You don't have to be afraid
Assuring the bird that it doesn't need to fear staying.
I'll fly vicariously
Expressing a willingness to experience flight through the bird.
Into the sky
Desiring to soar into the sky.
Where the air is thin
Referencing the high altitude where the air is thin.
I want to reach out and know the feeling
Expressing a desire to understand the sensation of weightlessness.
Of gravity's burden lifted from my skin
Wanting to feel the release of gravity's burden.
Caged birds can be happy too
Suggesting that even caged birds can find happiness.
Some good metal bars could do
Suggesting that confinement (metal bars) can bring contentment.
If you'd only come to me
Inviting the bird to seek freedom in the speaker's love.
My love could set you free
Claiming that love can liberate the bird.
From dangers of the open sky
Highlighting the dangers of the outside world.
I've heard It's not safe to fly
Referring to the perceived risks of flying.
Your fear, it comes naturally
Noting the bird's natural fear and offering a safe haven.
You can stay with me
Inviting the bird to stay and find comfort.
Out of the sky
Acknowledging a shared grounded reality.
We're both grounded here
Emphasizing that both the speaker and the bird are earthbound.
I know the view is much better
Acknowledging the limitations of the ground but emphasizing companionship.
But when you lose your lifeline
Addressing the potential loss of connection if the bird flies away.
I'll see you here
Expressing a commitment to remain present despite challenges.
Stay with me
Reiterating the plea for the bird to stay.
Stay
Emphasizing the desire for the bird's presence.
with me stay
Repeatedly urging the bird to stay.
With
Continuing the plea for the bird to stay.
Stay
Final plea for the bird to stay.
