Cuckoo Song

I won’t be your cuckoo my love nor a thief on the wing
A shameful regret or a promise on a string
I will follow your heart until you let me in
I’ll never be your cuckoo my love
I won’t be a lesson learned in spring
Don’t be a cuckoo my love if you ever want to know
The beat of your heart or the depth of your soul
I will colour my life with the courage that you’ve shown me
To never be a cuckoo my love
I will take this wish and bury it in the snow
The river you didn’t cross grows deeper everyday
And for the rest of my life are you the one that got away?
But before we grow old show me the depth of your soul
Let nobody clip your wings
We will build a home with the courage that you have shown
So put down your bow and arrow because time is on our side
I will be here in the morning if there are fireworks tonight
This is the calm before the storm, the design is in your eyes
I’ll never be a cuckoo my love
I will take this wish and bury it in the snow
I will build a home with the courage that you have shown
I will take this wish and bury it in the snow
And if you cross this river, I am yours and yours alone
