Let's stay awake And listen to the dark Before the birds Before they all wake up It's the ending of a play And soon begins another Hear the leaves applaud the wind uuuuuu See the sun come rising And white winds start to fly Like strings of pearls In the fiery sky I don't want to close my eyes Don't want to leave the stage now Hear, the leaves applaud our stay uuuuuu Lend me your wings And teach me how to fly Show me when it rains The place you go to hide N' the curtains draw again N' bow another day and the leaves applaud the wind uuuuuu uuuuuu
