[Verse 1]
Strange bird flying through deserted towns
She got no plumage
She got no song
Records all the quiet in her memory
If she's a computer, then what are we?

[Verse 2]
Hugs are few here, hugs are scarce
That bird up there, she can find no trace
She's scans the town for some human touch
We keep our distance
We don't embrace too much

[Chorus]
Oh hold you tight, like it's out of style
Oh hold you tight, when the sun goes down

[Verse 3]
A boy outstretches littlе hand
His grandad meets his through a sheet of glass
A window pane like the Bеrlin Wall
To a little boy it don't make sense at all

[Verse 4]
Trudy drank manhattans in a bar of chrome
Now she buys her milk at the break of dawn
It's far from cocktails that she was raised
She hopes her world will be left unscathed
[Chorus]
Oh hold you tight, like it's out of style
Oh hold you tight, when the sun goes down

[Bridge]
Oh hold you tight, like it's out of style
Oh to hold you tight, when the sun goes down
For a silver moo, shine down on our town
Let your light shine on
Let your light shine on

[Verse 5]
Strange bird flying through deserted towns
She got no plumage
She got no song
Records all the quiet in her memory
If she's a computer, then what are we?
