Wings of white, lilac eyes, I will watch them for a while, the iris comes alive
Closing in, scattered grounds, soaring high above yourself, circle round
Well-worn path to who knows where, I know you can't lead me there
Trying to fit my life with yours
Shifting circles whirling wide, changing like the endless tide
Deafened by the sounds I hear
I watch you as we turn into each other, was it you or me I saw?
Silver touch, dressed in light I will bottle it inside until it dies
Crossing space, out of range, you can never bring me back to that place
Treading onwards into black, time elapsed, we can't turn back
Whispered words just won't revive
Feel the pull of fading light, falling fast with failing sight
Search for something no-one's found
I watch you as we turn into each other, was it you or me I saw?
Wings of white, lilac eyes, I will watch them for a while, the iris comes alive
Don't look back, lilac eyes, could I sit here for a while and watch you fly
