Brick and stone made aviary
Blocking out the sun and sky
Is it really necessary?
You need freedom, so do I
These stone walls are cold and narrow
No place for a java sparrow
And just like them, I'm so far from home
♪
If I was a South Sea island
I would share my sun with you
All the stars on my horizons
Would rise to find their light in you
Shooting stars like an arrow
Faster than a java sparrow
And just like them, I'm so far from home

Oh, oh, oh, oh
♪
If you see me when you're sleeping
That means you're my guiding light
All my love is in your keeping
Through the long and lonely night
Love that reaches to the marrow
Warmer than a java sparrow
And just like them, I'm so far from home
