En voilà une autre, free as a bird.

asrael:

Alela Diane - Oh! My Mama

Oh my Mama 
She gave me these feathered breaths 
Oh my Mama 
She told me use your voice, 
My little bird

She said sing sing sing sing sing sing melodies 
And she sang sang sang sang sang sang melodies

Oh my Mama 
She did give me fancy feet 
I’ll be dancing on 
And I’ll tap tap tap my toes 
Into those creaking floorboards

Oh my Mama 
She took my little hand and held on tight 
Oh the Mamas 
Give the waters of their wells 
Oh the Mamas 
Give the babies this very dirt we’re walking on 
Oh my Mama 
She gave me these feathered breaths 
And your Mama 
She gave you those feathered breaths too

And when the sky drops all those feathers 
And when the birds sing in the morning 
I’ll be a mama 
I’ll have a daughter 
I’ll be a mama 
I’ll have a daughter

And I’ll give her melodies 
I’ll give her melodies 
(repeat)

And she’ll be 
My little bird 
And then she’ll fly 
She’ll fly
