[Intro]
[Verse]
When I was a little child, I once found a bird lying on the ground.
It would not ever fly, again.
I held the bird up in my hands, I shed my tears over the lovely song
that not longer could be heard.
[Refrain]
(2x)
Uhh...Never learn to fly
[Verse]
With dirty hands I dug a hole and gently laid the bird to rest in soil:
A wound in the tear stained mud.
My tears wore rain as I revealed the secrets of a tree.
A cross of bark to speak through wooden grains:
[Refrain]
(2x)
Uhh...Never learn to fly
[Bridge]
I sang a song which I remembered my grandma used to sing
For me, when I was sick and laid in bed.
Then I cursed that day for showing me my own mortality
For then I knew that all that lives turns cold.
Cold and dead...
...and now time has passed by beneath my wings.
[Solo]
[Bridge]
That was then I'm older now,
but still I can't forget that rainy day.
I raged against the ending times,
though some day soon my son will maybe
Find the tree I cleansed of skin,
no chain-sling will ever climb it's rotten limbs.
And when the time has come for me to die,
I want to lie beside that bird.
[Refrain]
(2x)
Uhh...Never learn to fly
[Outro]
When I was a little child, I once found myself dying on the ground
and now I'll never... Fly...
