Brighten – We Are Birds Lyrics 15 years ago
ive been listening to this song for a while (and i just watched the notebook) and this is what i think

We're so dark by night, I am lost
directions getting faded
remember what you're taught - (to follow your heart)
she's so bright, i'll use her as light- (he loves her, she brightens his world)
she's so much more than decoration-(in the notebook women are often looked at as 'decoration' and dont have say in
things [back in early 1900s])


She can fly, and shes no angel in the sky
she's a witch but she knows better not to take me when she flys-(he knows she has not perfect, like when he calls her a
pain in the ass lol. im not sure about the "she knows better not to take..." part)
and i miss how she looks me in the eyes-(allie has alzheimers and therefore isnt herself)
oh this sounds like desperation- (hes desperate for her back)

if you're a bird then i'm a bird -(theyll always be together)
but if you cant fly then neither will i- (he'll never leave her)
cause in love is not the right time, to die-(he wont die without her?)

her wings are spread,
she's stuck here on the ground- (shes having a tough time with her illness)
she's not heavy, she's my world -(shes not a burden on him, shes everything to him)
i'll carry her around - (hell do anything for her, take her whereever she wants)
i hear her breathing, that's my favorite sound - (he loves everything about her)

tell me what you think :)
