x_x_x [bodytext] => As you cry
I watch the tears fall from your beautiful blue eyes
And I
Stare despondently as my own tears suffocate within this pain
Fly
My baby, fly higher than anyone ever has before
Why,
I will never let you endure anguish like this
Cry
Out your hunger for the world beyond you
Whilst I
Withdraw from life into my own despair
Fly
Above those who appear so great
Why,
I can't hold you down, hold you in my arms forever
And I cry
Ecstatically watching you go from strength to strength
Whilst I
Shrivel into myself, yet exultant with your being
Fly
Among the sun, the moon
The brightest star
You are
