With my missing wings I did not rise up high I did not live large and intense I did not yell at the stars I did not fly to another land I did not hear a screaming bird speaking to me in heavenly lairs I need a new place to live and I wish I could not look back again To become like the sun to come and to leave To become like the sun to come and to leave I did not strike my harp playing celestial melodies I did not adjust my verse to enchanted tunes And I did not extract the juices of fruits and opium to create a unique and dreamy composition I need a new place to live and I wish I could not look back again To become like the sun to come and to leave To become like the sun to come and to leave
