Improvisation section

Music just repeats with following stanzas
 

Closing my dream inside its paper bag.
Thought I saw angels but I could have been wrong
Search in my case,
can't find what they're looking for.
Waving me through
to cry you a song.

It's been a long time
still shaking my sings
Well I'm a glad bird
I got changes to ring.

Lights in the street
peeping throught curtains drawn.
Rattling of safety chain taking too long.
The smile in you eyes
was never so sweet before
I came down from the skies
to cry you a song.
