Two romantic
Little birds
Runaway from home

Years and years
They planned to fly
But wings would never grow

Let's go and find them on our own
Let's leave it all behind

Young and brave the two of us
We'll sing this every night

Give us wings
Give us wings
We want to see the world
[2x]

A thousand miles they walked alone
Through and through the fields

Climbed up in the mountains
And swam with the seals

On the darkest night in a hundred years
They fell of a cliff

Fast as they were falling down
Their feathers began to lift

We have wings
We have wings!
It's time to fly away!
[2x]

In seconds they were in the sky
Higher than the stars

But soon they felt a loneliness
Not happy in their hearts

"Oh maybe we should go back home"
They said, and made a twist

Look, two little birds down there
They seem to be flightless

Take our wings
Take our wings
'cause we are going home

Take our wings
Take our wings
Go fly up in the world
