C              G
Don't get me wrong
F               C
I think I'm in love
         F              C
But the feeling in the word is more
           A#
Than your crystal eyes
     F            C
Will ever see in me
               G
Don't get me wrong
F          C
Open your eyes
F                   C
Although I cannot show my heart
      A#
I'll watch and hope
       F               C
While you are near to me

Chorus:
C
One day I'll capture you
     F
And call you to my side
C
One day I'll take you from
     F
The boredom of our lives
C
One day we'll fly away
        F
To the kingdom of my dreams
C
One day I'll find myself
     G#            A#       C
And wrap it in my love for you

Birds of the sky
May I borrow your wings?
Very soon I'll ask my love
To travel with me to the world outside
Cherry trees, may I borrow your bloom?
Very soon I'll ask my love
To come inside the nest I'll build alone

Chorus

Animal friends
Help me decide
When should I ask my love to leave?
I'll beg of you that she'll say yes to me
Breathe in deep
Now is the time
She looks at me and gently smiles
As if she knew
I'd ask her all the time

Chorus
