Music and Lyrics by Jack Kovacs

lyrics

There is a light inside the sky
When you try to look it burns behind your eyes
I know these open-ended queries with no answers form our boundaries
They make me want to cry

The time we hold is often brief
Bound down to the ground by the gravity of grief
I know that every one of us aches from a place deep inside
We wait for our release

Do you wish that you were lighter than the air
Oil on the water, or ashes like you were never there?
I know you long to trade your arms for wings
And leave behind your words for a Voice That Only Sings

Are you afraid to be a child again,
Yet unbroken by the dangers of the wilderness?
I know it's love that tore you down
Oh, how you used to dance
But now you're pieces on the ground

Do you wish that you were lighter than the air
Oil on the water, or ashes like you were never there?
I know you long to trade your arms for wings
And leave behind your words for a Voice That Only Sings

Please I beg you not to let me go
We are all tied together by each and every hand we hold
I know the day will come when we all return to our home in the sun
But until then we remain forever young

Do you wish that you were lighter than the air
Oil on the water, or ashes like you were never there?
I know you long to trade your arms for wings
And leave behind your words for a Voice That Only Sings

Leave behind your words for a Voice That Only Sings
