Bettie I. Alfred – Texte, Hörspiele, Kunst

Billie H. sang vor 90 Jahren diesen wunderschönen traurigen Text, am Ende hat „die Redaktion“ ihn kurz umgedichtet… weil heute doch Weihnachten ist:

The bird with feathers of blue
Is waiting for you
Back in your own backyard
You’ll see your castles in Spain
Through your window pane
Back in your own backyard
Oh you can go to the East
Go to the West
But someday you’ll come
Weary at heart
Back where you started from
You’ll find your happiness lies
Right under your eyes
Back in your own backyard
The bird with feathers of blue
Is waiting for you
Back in your own backyard
You’ll see your castles in Spain
Through your window pane
Back in your own backyard
Oh you can go to the East
Go to the West
But someday you’ll come
Weary (or satisfied… die Redaktion) at heart
Back where you started from
You’ll find your happiness lies (or truths… die Redaktion)
Right under (or over… die Redaktion) your eyes
Back in your own backyard (or garden… die Redaktion)
