HIGH WINGS

Aislinn the Bard

Take me away
To a sky dappled blue
Where each passing moment brings
Something else new
But the joy's still the same
And the wind is a game
Played by two.

Ah how the silence is growing out here
Where I can't touch the ground
It touches my worries, my hopes and my fears
With a freedom new-found
And it brings me 'round
To perfection right here.

Let me fly
With the wings of a bird
In a free-wheeling ecstacy
Far beyond words
Where the sun greets the dawn
And the breeze ripples on, undeterred.

Let the myriad stars
Be my guide
I sit here in mid-air
So caught up inside
But my soul seeks the wind
And each flight begins
A new realm of delight

Ah how the silence is growing each day
In the arms of the wind
The airplanes that opened the sky to me say
They're my allies and friends
And each flight begins
In a dazzling new way

Take me away
To a sky dappled blue
Where each passing moment
Brings something else new
And the wind is
A game played by two
The wind is
A game played by two.
