The Boy Who Could Fly

Each cold and lonely morning
 When the sunlight hits the wall
 I wake to find that nothing
 Has changed for me at all
 I know there was a better time
 In a better place
 But just like a fading dream
 I can't recall your face
 As the years pass me by
 I can't remember why
 Time steals the memories
 From before we were apart
 But time can't heal
 This empty feeling in my heart
 Home was the place where we shared a life
 But you flew away and you never said goodbye
 But there's a fleeting image
 That clings still to my mind
 Eyes of hope and sadness
 Both so artfully entwined
 And when the season changes
 When the autumn leaves drift by
 I try to remember the boy who could fly
 What did you say?
 Why did you go away?
 Time steals the memories
 From before we were apart
 But time can't heal
 This empty feeling in my heart
 Home was the place where we shared a life
 But you flew away and you never said goodbye
 Fly from the window
 To the darkness as it calls
 Fly through the dreaming night
 Stardust as it falls
 There's a memory I hide behind a wall
 You never really flew away at all
 I hear the sirens wailing in the night
 In a moment's desperation
 You were gone from sight
 I see your face in the mirror's glass
 Won't you take me with you now at last?
