At the end of the day
Across a moonless sky
Comes a wide winged bird
Sent to close my eyes
When you kissed my lips
They were cold like mine
And you swore you'd loved me
'Til the day I died
There's a wide winged bird
Flying across the sky
Sent to carry your love
To me right on time
There's a wide winged bird
In the dead of the night
Come to show me you loved me
'Til the day I died
At my death they dug a grave
And in that grave they grew a seed
And that seed became a leaf
And that leaf became a tree
And in that tree there was a nest
And in that nest there lay an egg
From that egg there came a body
Of a wide winged bird
There's a wide winged bird
Flying across the sky
Sent to carry your love
To me right on time
There's a wide winged bird
In the dead of the night
Come to show me you loved me
'Til the day I died
At the end of the day
Across a moonless sky
Comes a wide winged bird
Sent to close my eyes
