The Extraordinaires - Ribbons of War Part I Annelies lyrics

Here's the tale I never lived to tell This is my farewell We met when I was just a girl and he asked me for my hand I a pilot to the core and him a sailing man Soaring high through cloudy skies, an aeronautic life He was married to the sea where I would be his wife He just couldn't share me with the sky and open air I kissed him one last time as I tied ribbons in my hair Ribbons of war and battle in my hair High up in the clouds, I took the throttle in my grip I held my breath and aimed my nose directly at his ship My fuselage exploded and destroyed our tattered love In life we were not meant to be, in d**h we are as one In d**h we are as one, in the ashes of our love Swingin' on that swingset and walking hand in hand If only we had found a love and kept it on dry land Every time we'd fight you'd try and act so big and tall I hated laughing at you but you're not so tough at all But now we're sinking...
