Six Birds

Verse 1

I’d walked up the stairs on that day

to show my mother what I had made

Her eyes opened wide, caught by surpise.

I can’t believe she said you are a child of mine

 

Chorus

Use full width spread your wings 

Travel to what’s given to you.

Use full width spread your wings.

Travel to what is yours to give.

 

Verse 2

I’d drawn six birds on that day.

On one piece of paper and their own branch to stay.

She said so many talents in you I see

I said to her they just were given to me.

 

Chorus

Use full width spread your wings 

Travel to what’s  given to you.

Use full width spread your wings.

Travel to what is yours to give.

 

Verse 3

And one by one all six birds on a day to come. 

Will leave there branch and be gone.

Bridge

We need to trust the wind and go our way. 

Cause we’ve got more than we can give away. 

 

Chorus 2x

Use full width spread your wings 

Travel to what’s given to you.

Use full width spread your wings.

Travel to what is yours to give.
