lyrics

No one can touch you, no one can try
You say you're in love, and the lover is the sky
The wind it howls past you and the earth seems too fast to grab you
but the water looks so warm

You didn't mean any harm,
just a boy succumbed to charm -- with the mountains in your arms
You saw the depth of their creation

When the day was done, you laid your grave inside the sun
the maze could not contain you, nor could he
The one who chained your feet
and tore your shoulders from your wings
And when you ran away, you headed westward to the sea

A fallen dreamer, your daddy cried
No great redeemer was there to fetch you when you died
The wind she held you softly, whispered Heavenly words so often
that you thought you made it there

So you said a little prayer for the judgement to be fair,
but baby, if you're them, then who's up there?

When the day was set, and the final match was met,
she dipped her head to greet you another time.
"You shone so very brightly that I thought that we'd be tied,
and what's yours is yours, and rightly,
but don't forget that you are mine"
