On a lake, in the dark
A beautiful girl with wings on her back
A smile on her face
And a gift in her hand
A hug and a kiss
Is all that she can
Give me
That's enough
She says a few words
But I cannot listen
I'm lost in a world
Where my joy had gone missing
She picks up a pen
And draws me a map
A beautiful girl
With wings on her back
Then she kissed me
That's enough
Her words coming through
From that smile on her face
"There is some hope
In every grey place"
She put down her head
And drifts to sleep to a song
The wings on her back
Are still glowing strong
That's enough
For me
(*I'd tell all my friends but they'd never believe me, they'd think that I finally lost it completely, I'd show them the stars and the meaning of life, they'd shut me away
But I'll be alright)
Sleep tight... Sleep tight...
* The song was written to the tune of "Subterranean Homesick Alien" by Radiohead. This verse is from the actual song. It fits in so well, I decided it would do no harm to leave it there. I hope the folks at Radiohead won't mind... )
