Matthew Parker – City Of Nocturnal Birds lyrics

Just look behind you and you will see
The lights all around me
Giving off an iridescent glow and only heaven knows
Of our secret city in the western hemisphere
Our secrets always safe with me so have no fear
Chorus:
Head west to the golden sun
Your journey’s just begun
And say hello to my feathered friends
Don't stop till you see the sight of a thousand beady eyes
Cause then you’ll know that you’ve arrived
You’ll march into the forest and hear mysterious ghosts that no one else has ever heard
You'll fly above the tress, worn up by thousand wings
In the city of nocturnal birds
I’ll be back soon
From the sandy coastlines
Where I take ferry rides and your standing across the ocean where the surf breaks on the tide lines
Just close your eyes and c*** your ears and
You will hear a lonely long last lullaby singing goodbye
Come back with a feather in your hand singing a song I’ve never heard
And I’ll go with you next year to the city of nocturnal birds
Chorus:
Head west to the golden sun
Your journey’s just begun
And say hello to my feathered friends
Don't stop till you see the sight of a thousand beady eyes
Cause then you’ll know that you’ve arrived
You’ll march into the forest and hear mysterious ghosts that no one else has ever heard
You'll fly above the tress, worn up by thousand wings
In the city of nocturnal birds
