If I Had Wings (in Yiddish) by barmaljova

barmaljova — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 07:53:39 -0800

If I only had wings, I would fly to you... If I had chains, I would pull you to me... Just open up my heart, you'll see that it's dark and heavy with my love to you... Late last night, we wanted to capture the intimacy and quiet sparkle of this old song ... Hope it brings you a moment of peace and loveliness...
