I was a bay tree
Quiet and unseen
I lived in stories but inside I kept a mystery
I was a starling
Nobody's darling
Flying in perfect circles
Desperate company
[Chorus:]
And now I'm ready
And now I'm ready
And now I'm ready to be
Extraordinary
A midnight airplane
A window blowing
I know I am another sparkle in the sky
I shine on copper
Still undiscovered
But you must see me in the corner of your eye
[Chorus]
Waking up to wake up someday
I am my own prey
Stopping off at a sidewalk cafe
The wind is playing up in the trees
Kicking up confetti leaves
Sings as if it's all to say
[Chorus x2]
