Text: André Maurois
Music: Henri Salvador

Birds and dreamsHenri Salvador's version:
Are for those who can take them
Birds and dreams
Are for those who can wait
And you pursue them
The birds and the dreams
If you pursue them
Take off straight away
Wait for them to land
While looking elsewhere
Wait for them to land
With a mocking look
Then when they curl up
At the hollow of your hand
Then when they curl up
Then hold them tight
When love shows up
It scares the beauties
When love shows up
They are more cruel
Wait for them to come
While looking elsewhere
Wait for them to come
With a mocking look
Birds and dreams
Are for those who can take them
Birds and dreams
Are for those who can wait
