Lyrics
0:12One fine day these words I pray
0:18Will breathe a truth
0:24Within yourself upon a shelf
0:32A life anew
0:36So many roads
0:39It's hard to know what to do
0:49All your dreams
0:53All it seems
0:57Is as you choose
1:01For destiny my China bird
1:07Is calling for you
1:16The world turns
1:19The flame burns
1:22Bright and true
1:28Near and far
1:32Where you are
1:36Guiding you China bird
1:43The open skies
1:46Are yearning for you
2:13If they say it's not that way
2:19Hold your view
2:25Fly above with my love
2:32A light anew
2:37Oh spread your wings
2:41The open sky
2:43Is calling for you China bird
2:53My heart is yearning for you
3:04For you
3:16If you fly away
3:22I'll be waiting come what may
3:28All my love a fragile ray
3:33For you for you
3:45For you for you
One fine day these words I pray Will breathe a truth Within yourself upon a shelf A life anew So many roads It's hard to know what to do All your dreams All it seems Is as you choose For destiny my China bird Is calling for you The world turns The flame burns Bright and true Near and far Where you are Guiding you China bird The open skies Are yearning for you If they say it's not that way Hold your view Fly above with my love A light anew Oh spread your wings The open sky Is calling for you China bird My heart is yearning for you For you If you fly away I'll be waiting come what may All my love a fragile ray For you for you For you for you
