Ladyhawk

I wanted piece of the happiness

A young heart so eager to fly with the rest

I preened down my feathers and tired my best

To sneak out before my nightly rest

I held my breath

My heart was beating

Felt excited for my wings were truly open

In my early days my faith was strong

I had to tell myself to ease my yearning heart

In my darkest days my faith was gone

I has to teach myself to heal my broken heart

The sweet wind turned and carried me

See, my wings were open

Using my sight like a hawk they sent

I found the place where all they went

Soon I was sure that the night was all mine

I didn't know I needed to hide

I held my breath

The air was like a storm cloud

And again my wings were truly broken

In my early days my faith was strong

I had to tell myself to ease my yearning heart

In my darkest days my faith was gone

I has to teach myself to heal my broken heart

The sweet wind turned and carried me

See, my wings were broken

My feathers all like sodden

And bones, are all they broken?

I'll take my leap of faith

And relearn how to fly

In my early days my faith was strong

I had to tell myself to ease my yearning heart

In my darkest days my faith was gone

I has to teach myself to heal my broken heart

The sweet wind turned and carried me

See, my wings were broken
