All I was given, a chandelier, that sighed whenever it glistened, 
    G#m   G        F#     Fm          E                       D# 
And I was given, a toy soldier, who'd stand under nothing but glisten, 
        A                                               G#m 
Now the wings of a seagull, spread out and its flying away, 
   A                                                 G#m 
Maybe if I light it, the candle, it will come back today.

Close your eyes, don't be surprised, here come the stony skies, 
C#m                                                    G#m     G#m 
Out of the sorrowing night flies the bird with plastic feathers.

     Now my chandelier of crystal clear, has turned into pieces of wood, 
G#m           G        F#      Fm             E                          D# 
And my toy soldier has melted away, there's a lump where he listened and stood, 
A                                   G#m 
Maybe, the seagull will fly back to stay, 
    A                                      G#m 
But my grieving mind has yet to discover a way.

Out of the sorrowing night flies the bird with plastic feathers.
