Story Behind The Song
the singer talks to a teenage girl with a heartache, and try to tell her not to go drifting like this, to spread the wings and fly again
Song Description
very slow tempo (like some old 'Scorpion hooks')
a pure 'Beatles' arpege on guitar
big energy rising among the song with guitar (noisy chords) and drums (double kick at the end)
Strong lead vocals
very sophisticated back vocals (a la Beatles on 'because')
a long ad lib like a spiral (this ad lib end is cut in the radio edit version that is only 03:30 !!!) : wispers and flying spiral.
DOn't listen to the end spiral alone if you took drug : you might be depressed !!!

Lyrics
My little bird blue ( Jee WY / Jee WY )
I just wrote this song for you
My little bird blue
Seems with a snap of the fingers
Your Shangri-La has gone away
You?re standing there in the darkness
Expecting love to come to play
And barely watching TV
Raising frustration and despair
I say you gotta fly away
My little bird blue
Fly away
I?m talking to you
You can?t go on drifting like this
Smoking life from day to day
Please open your eyes and meet my gaze
Don?t believe all what is said
You know all their speaches are twisted by
The same spin doctors anyway
So give me a smile my bird blue
I?m singing for you
I say you gotta fly away (i?ve been wasted you?ve been wasted you and i both have been wasted)
My little bird blue
Fly away
I?m talking to you
