My Threnody - Butterfly On A Wheel lyrics

Silver and gold And it's growing cold Autumn leaves lay As thick as thieves Shivers down your spine Chill you to the bone 'Cos the mandolin wind Is the melody that turns Your heart to stone The heat of your breath Carving shadows on the mist Every angel has the wish that She's never been kissed A broken dream Haunting in your sleep And hiding in your smile A secret you must keep Love cuts you deep Love breaks the wings of a bu*terfly On a wheel Love breaks the wings of a bu*terfly On a wheel There's no scarlet in you Lay your veil down for me As sure as God made wine You can't wrap your arms Around a memory Take warmth from me Cold Autumn winds Cut sharp as a knife And in the dark for me You're the candle flame that Flickers to life Love breaks the wings of a bu*terfly On a wheel Love will break the wings of a bu*terfly On a wheel Wise men say all is fair In love and war And there's no right or wrong In the design of love And I could only watch As the wind crushed your wings Broken and torn Crushed like the flower under the snow And like the flower in spring Love will rise again to heal your wings Love heals the wings of a bu*terfly On a wheel Love will heal the wings of a bu*terfly On a wheel
