In the beginning
There was nothing
So empty
In the space between
Then you came in

Turned the lights on
And created
What has came to be

Before I hook your wings
Cover me, please
Spread your wings
Cover me and

Promise this
If I die before I wake, oh
Promise this
Take the time to say your grace
On your knees
You’ll pray for me
Promise this
Be the last to kiss my lips

Alouette…

Though I’m walking
Through the shadows
You were with me
And you comfort me
Lay me down now
Time for sleeping
But before that
Would you restore me

Before I hook your wings
Cover me, please
Spread your wings
Cover me

[Refrain]

Alouette…

That’s where we’re hanging on
And I hope you don’t let me go
If you ever leave me
Know I wanna go with you

[Refrain]

Alouette…

Alouette plumerai les ailes
Alouette plumerai les ailes
