Lirik 'Birds' dari Rachael Yamagata Ceritakan Tentang Rasa Kehilangan
Rachael Yamagata dengan penuh kebanggaan mempersembahkan album studio terbarunya bertajuk Starlit Alchemy, menandai karya baru pertamanya setelah hampir satu dekade.
Album ini dibuka dengan single berjudul Birds, yang lahir dari inspirasi momen tak terduga ketika sekawanan burung menabrak jendela rumahnya. Lagu tersebut juga ditulis khusus untuk sepupunya yang tengah berduka atas kehilangan sang ibu sejak lama.
Di balik nuansa lembutnya, Birds menyampaikan pesan yang tersembunyi—dengan lirik yang sederhana namun sarat emosi, diselimuti sentuhan harapan yang menenangkan.
Lirik Lagu Birds - Rachael Yamagata
Send me a sign and I'll pass it on as best as I can
To the broken man who doesn't quite believe yet
But he's coming along 'cause he knows that he needs you
Oh, he needs you now
Drop me a line from an old friend and I'll know what to do
All these messages from you
It makes you think
He said: I had a dream of her last night
And I never do
Oh, I miss her so
Especially now when the world has gone so crazy
It's just so damn unfair to have to bear it on your own
You always made us laugh
And I'll remind him of that
The birds you're flying into my window
I'll make sure he knows
Yeah, I'll make sure he knows
All of this time we have held on - it's the best we can do
We are making it through
And it makes you think
What'll I do with all this time that I never do?
Oh, I miss her too
Especially now when the world has gone so crazy
I know it feels unfair to have to bear it on your own
You always made us laugh
And I'll remind him of that
The birds you're flying to my window
Saying hi when he feels so low
I'll make sure he knows
All that's been going on
You're watching through the trees
Saying: My dear, don't forget to love everything
And I'm still here
Especially now when the world has gone so crazy
I know it feels unfair to have to bear it on your own
You have to try and laugh - and I'll remind you of that
It's just a piece of glass
And it's funny you don't know
There is a window
