Djavan - Bird Of Paradise Lyrics
You appear on the horizon, far awayMy desire to be there with youStirs the wind and fills the sails.In the bay I drop the anchor down, swim ashoreOn the beach the coconut palms,Jasmine, frangipane and you...Your silent eyes convince meI'm maroonedWe're safe inside this azure blue lagoonI want to know you, bird of paradiseI want to show you, all the love that I feelI need to touch you, bird of paradiseI need your touch to make this fantasy realOn sea o storm is raging, far awayAnd the ships - like so many toys -Fear the wind and fight the wavesIn your amrs it's a forgotten dream,nothing moreHere the sky is perfectly clearEvening star, the moonlight and youYour silent eyes convince meI'm maroonedWe're safe inside this azure blue lagoonI want to know you, bird of paradiseI want to show you, all the love that I feelI need to touch you, bird of paradiseI need your touch to make this fantasy realI want to know you, bird of paradiseI want to show you, all the love that I feelJust you and me, a mango treeThe bare necessities of loveMy bird of paradise, I realizeThat you were sent here from aboveYou're my birdOf paradiseMy bird of paradise
