A little manchild, high up at the window
His trembling feet at the line
Hey little manchild, do you see the people?
From high above they are so kind
Do you see the ravens?
It's you whom they're calling
"Come fly with me!"
We keep on wandering
And all the sorrows
Are simply staying here?
Fly with me over all nights and days
To the eternal place
There to where all are going
1000 years away
1000 years away
(1000 years away)
(1000 years away)
A little manchild lies there on the road
Why in God's name?
Hey little manchild, do you see the people?
From down below they are so plain
Do you hear the ravens?
It's you whom they're calling
"Come fly with me!"
And in the morning
All will be forgotten
And you were never here
Fly with me over all nights and days
To the eternal place
There to where all are going
1000 years away
You'll be seeing where it's all begun
Who makes the world go round
There where we all meet one day
1000 years away
1000 years away
On the 7th of December, 1995, around 6.30 pm
Peter flew with the birds, he was eleven years old
In that same month, a further 3 children flew like Peter
In the following year, 33 more followed
Peter had many friends
In his last letter he said goodbye to all of them
Also to his mother - but not to his father
Due to the impact with the ground at the post-mortem
Peter's body showed no sign of the terrible mistreatment he had suffered
Later, in tears, his mother said that Peter- wherever he may now be-
Need no longer live in fear of his drunken father
Fly with me over all nights and days
To the eternal place
There to where all are going
1000 years away
You'll be seeing where it's all begun
Who makes the world go round
There where we all meet one day
1000 years away
1000 years away
(1000 years away)
(1000 years away)
(1000 years away)
(1000 years away)
His trembling feet at the line
Hey little manchild, do you see the people?
From high above they are so kind
Do you see the ravens?
It's you whom they're calling
"Come fly with me!"
We keep on wandering
And all the sorrows
Are simply staying here?
Fly with me over all nights and days
To the eternal place
There to where all are going
1000 years away
1000 years away
(1000 years away)
(1000 years away)
A little manchild lies there on the road
Why in God's name?
Hey little manchild, do you see the people?
From down below they are so plain
Do you hear the ravens?
It's you whom they're calling
"Come fly with me!"
And in the morning
All will be forgotten
And you were never here
Fly with me over all nights and days
To the eternal place
There to where all are going
1000 years away
You'll be seeing where it's all begun
Who makes the world go round
There where we all meet one day
1000 years away
1000 years away

1000 years away
