Martina topley bird lullaby lyrics

Let's take our wine closer to the fireside 

No apologies, so much to say 

And there is no time 

There's a fairytale 

You never learned to read or write 

Oyster shell 

You never learned to look inside 



Take it from me 

He and I were winter bees 

I fell easily 

For visions I'd never see 



stardust falling from my halo 



See there's this fairytale 

You never learned to read or write 

Oyster Pearl 

You never cared to look inside 



I keep it clean 

Your fingers press my cheek 

You're not like me 

My duty speaks and it moves my feet 



You don't understand 

Just like the rock in my hand 

You don't understand 

Just like the rock in my hand 



There's a fairytale 

You never learned to read or write 

Oyster shell 

You never cared to look inside 

There's a fairytale 

You never learned to read or write 

Oyster shell 

You never learned to look inside 



Never cared to look inside 

Never cared, you never cared 

Never cared to look inside 

Never cared, you never cared 

Never cared to look inside 

Never cared, you never cared
