The Swan

The house curtains rise, we were standing there Two little girls, flowers in our hair We knew what we'd find, we were mesmerized Then the curtain fell and we realized Oh, another fight for the waking life Did you lose your way, was it a sacrifice? It's impossible to understand What tore your fingers back from your clenched up fist You closed your eyes with confidence It's impossible to undеrstand I think of the dance, the dying swan Why thеy added it to the story line Her movements, her grace, they were beautiful In her wilting arms lay her power Oh, another fight for the waking life Did you lose your way, was it a sacrifice? It's impossible to understand What tore your fingers back from your clenched up fist You closed your eyes with confidence It's impossible to understand And oh, we'd met a lifetime ago I'll see you somewhere I don't know Yeah, you could do anything But you have something to lose To lose Oh, another fight for the waking life Did you lose your way, was it a sacrifice? It's impossible to understand What tore your fingers back from your clenched up fist You closed your eyes with confidence It's impossible to understand
