Lyrics English
when the cardinals come
only when the cardinals come
do I ask the night if she'd fold her wings and sleep some
if she'd fold, like a rose over its stars
that way
at that time
would it be alright if I wrapped my arms around you
in the dark
out in the street
or wherever
it is you run with your heart
just like me
when we're together
and now everything has changed
I don't want the same old things
would you wait
if I'd be there soon
with your eyes hung shadowy like half-moons
would you wait, wait and watch the dream first
as the wind lifts its skirt
then the day's white fire will give itself up to you
in the dark
out in the street
or wherever
it is you run with your heart
just like me
when we're together
and now everything has changed
I don't want the same old things
only when the cardinals come
do I ask the night if she'd fold her wings and sleep some
if she'd fold like a rose over its stars
that way
at that time
would it be alright if I wrapped my arms around you
in the dark
out in the street
or wherever
it is you run with your heart
just like me
when we're together
and now everything has changed
I don't want the same old things
