Tonight The Sky

Lyrics

Her head lay back in blankets soft white down
 Her hair warm Autumn colours, floating
 Our days were classroom poems, true young love
 some nights we roar like lions, some we coo like doves
 I left her long ago one summer, chasing dreams
 I hummed good sweet explosions? sweet nothings
 I broke her heart not knowing she'd return
 And graven scars deep in me, forever
 I hear my sleeping sister
 In the early morning hours
 I hear her though it's silent
 Standing over me now
 Tonight the skies
 Will open for you
 Mountains and big clouds
 Divide us in two
 She fell into his arms, his sweet strong kiss
 she made her perfect gardens in this?
 World that turned its back, shook things round
 In time it took our loving sister down
 I met my fallen Angel one last time
 I promised always through me she would shine
 I held her hands, I sunk into her heart
 Til powers unrelenting, pulled us apart
 I saw my sleeping sister
 Rising toward a light
 A mist above the skyline
 On that neverending night
 Tonight bright stars
 Are shining for you
 Oceans and full moons
 Deep midnight blue
 I woke up every morning
 Not believing her to be gone
 Outside the doves and sparrows
 Carried on
 Building now so sweetly
 settled into spring
 Outside the kids in their yards
 Laughing?
 I loved you like no other
 Your eyes I can't erase
 Your voice it wakes me always
 Pouring down from space
 Like warm sun rays
 You're turning into
 wind sails on cool bays
 I'm watching for you
 Tonight the skies
 Are open for you
 Mountains and big clouds
 Dividing in two
