|
Don't ask me to surrender |
|
Her voice fell tired and spent |
|
My hopes and dreams, a silent heart |
|
I carry here within |
|
Her outstretched wings left tattered |
|
A sail aged with rust |
|
A breath in time that's yours and mine |
|
It belongs to only us |
|
And I will write her name and cast it to the sky |
|
Silhouettes recede into a mother's tearful eyes |
|
A host of angels clamor to her side |
|
A light dissolves to kiss the wind |
|
Release the dragonfly |
|
See the rose within the field of white |
|
She's searching for the grail |
|
But the rain descends to snatch the light |
|
From distant dying suns |
|
A faint resounding in the night |
|
Calls angels' wings to beat |
|
Singing silent lip-sewn songs |
|
But the distance is too deep |
|
And I will write her name and cast it to the sky |
|
Silhouettes recede into a mother's tearful eyes |
|
A host of angels clamor to her side |
|
A light dissolves to kiss the wind |
|
Release the dragonfly |
|
And I will write her name and cast it to the sky |
|
As precious moments will slip away in time |
|
Angels fall from grace and sometimes heroes die |
|
But tonight, my love, ascend the gates |
|
Release the dragonfly |
|
And I will write her name and cast it to the sky |
|
Silhouettes recede into a mother's tearful eyes |
|
A host of angels clamor to her side |
|
A light dissolves to kiss the wind, |
|
Release the dragonfly |
|
And I will write her name and cast it to the sky |
|
As precious moments will slip away in time |
|
Sometimes angels fall, but love will never die |
|
Tonight my soul is something more |
|
Calls the dragonfly |
