Lyrics A Silent Film

A Silent Film

Cuckoo Song

I wont be your cuckoo my love

Nor a thief on the way

A shameful regret

Or a promise on a string

And I will follow your heart

Until you let me in

I'll never be your cuckoo my love

I'll be a lesson learned instead

Ooohhhhhh oh oh ooohhhhhhh oh oh ooohhhhhh

Don't be a cuckoo my love

If you ever want to know

The beat of your heart

Or the depth of your soul

And now I cut out my life

With the courage that you showed me

To never be a cuckoo my love

But I will take this wish and bury it in the snow

ooohhhhhhhh oh oh oooohhhhhhhhhh oh oh oooooohhhhhhh

The river you didn't cross

Grows deeper everyday

And for the rest of my life

Are you the one that got away

For we grow old

Would you show me the depth of your soul

And no we clip your wings

And we will build a home with the courage you have shown

Oooohhhhhhh oh oh ooooohhhhhhhh oh oh ooooooohhhhhhh

So put down your bow and arrow

Because time is on our side

I will be here in the morning

If there are violins tonight

This is the calm before the storm

Through the silence in your eyes

I'll never be a cuckoo my love

Oh I will take this wish and bury it in the snow (Cuckoo my love)

I will build a home with the courage you have shown (Cuckoo my love)

And I will take this wish and bury it in the snow (Cuckoo my love)

And if you cross this river

I'm yours and yours alone
