Djavan Bird Of Paradise Lyrics

Bird Of Paradise Lyrics

You appear on the horizon, far away

My desire to be there with you

Stirs the wind and fills the sails.

In the bay I drop the anchor down, swim ashore

On the beach the coconut palms,

Jasmine, frangipane and you...



Your silent eyes convince me

I'm marooned

We're safe inside this azure blue lagoon



I want to know you, bird of paradise

I want to show you, all the love that I feel

I need to touch you, bird of paradise

I need your touch to make this fantasy real



On sea o storm is raging, far away

And the ships - like so many toys -

Fear the wind and fight the waves

In your amrs it's a forgotten dream,

nothing more

Here the sky  is perfectly clear

Evening star, the moonlight and you



Your silent eyes convince me

I'm marooned

We're safe inside this azure blue lagoon



I want to know you, bird of paradise

I want to show you, all the love that I feel

I need to touch you, bird of paradise

I need your touch to make this fantasy real



I want to know you, bird of paradise

I want to show you, all the love that I feel



Just you and me, a mango tree

The bare necessities of love

My bird of paradise, I realize

That you were sent here from above

You're my bird

Of paradise

My bird of paradise
