| In the beginning
There was nothing
So empty
In the space between
Then you came in
Turned the lights on
And created
What has come to be
Before I pluck your wings
Cover me, please
Spread your wings
Cover me and
Promise this
If I die before I wake, oh
Promise this
Take the time to say your grace
On your knees
You'll pray for me
Promise this
Be the last to kiss my lips
Alouette uette uette
deployer l'aile
Alouette uette uette
plumerai l'aile
Though I'm walking
Through the shadows
You are with me
And you comfort me
Lay me down now
Time for sleeping
But before that
Would you restore me
Before I pluck your wings
Cover me, please
Spread your wings
Cover me
Promise this
If I die before I wake, oh
Promise this
Take the time to say your grace
On your knees
You'll pray for me
Promise this
Be the last to kiss my lips
Alouette uette uette
deployer l'aile
Alouette uette uette
plumerai l'aile
That's where we're hanging on
And I hope you don't let me go
If you ever leave me
Know I wanna go with you
Promise this
If I die before I wake, oh
Promise this
Take the time to say your grace
On your knees
You'll pray for me
Promise this
Be the last to kiss my lips
Alouette
Deployer l'aile
Alouette
Plumerai l'aile |
