Sweet Girl

Silver wings Swiftly snipped It was not your fault that they were never strong enough to lift you From the ground Where you stayed Every minute was a battle just to live another day But when you're here In my arms If you lay down your defenses I will swear to do no harm And if you cry When you speak May I lay a tender kiss upon your cheek Have a seat Won't you stay You've got your mother's eyes and father's tendency to run away But that's okay I'll be here If you wander for a lifetime just to spend a couple years And when you're here In my arms If you lay down your defenses I will swear to do no harm And if you cry When you speak May I lay a tender kiss upon your cheek
