Sometimes I feel I was born to be alone
Sometimes I think people don't really know me
There's a bluebird running wild
In my heart
No matter how I try to stop
His singing drives me mad
And when he wants to get out
I just don't know what to do
I guess I’m not like you, Charles.
I’ve spent my days between bartenders and whores
Drowning my bird on whisky and smoke
And there’s that bluebird running wild
In my heart
No matter how I try to stop
His singing drives me mad
No one knows that I have
That crazy bird in my heart
I guess I’m just like you, Charles.
His singing always
Faces the truth
No matter whisky
No matter moon.
His singing never
Flees from the blue
No matter charm
No matter room.
Bluebird,
Oh no! I know that you are there
We'll have to keep our pact in secret.
