Lyrics
Little dove,
You've been through adverse situations
Cried for months
An ear of corn is all you wish for
Dreams are lost
You pale and blue and invisible criminal
You cannot escape this world
So now you fall
Little star,
They leave you in this darkest hours
Breathing hard
One second of freedom is all you wish for
Shoes are gone
You lie to yourself that it doesn't hurt so much too much
But if you wanna face this world
It's time to fly
Wash away your tears and cross the river
Wash away your fears and cross the river
Wash away the years and cross the river
Wash away, my dear
