Nighttime Birds Lyrics
Their ways are open
the spread as their wings
they want to be certain
of a warm surrounding
When they fly
through the night as beautiful
nighttime birds
The warms wings pick them up
When they fly
through the night as beautiful
nighttime birds
the spread as their wings
they want to be certain
of a warm surrounding
through the night as beautiful
nighttime birds
through the night as beautiful
nighttime birds

such simple lyrics, but a beautiful song.
Some songs are more about the melody than the lyrics, it is definitely the case of Nighttime Birds. Excellent song in an overall brilliant album!
I believe it's about spirits of people who have just died making their journey to the Other Side / Heaven. (they want to be certain / of a warm surrounding)
The lyrics says the are "as beautiful as nighttime birds", which means they aren't really birds. But they can fly with the wind, and very peacefully for what I can see, they are just following their own way ("Their ways are open / they spread as their wings).
I may be very wrong, but that's what I think about.
@CelticBotan You enlighten me somewhat. When thinking about the melody with the meaning you give, I can see the dead was died naturally without misery. Death is always a mysterious thing as the melody shows to us.
