Tethered Doves

Two little birds Tethered to the soul One went it alone One fell beside the stone Too many times Their lines intertwined Weaving heaven to earth With one fumbling in the dirt Forgive my fragility No it doesn't come easily Like it did before While I tend this broken wing I know the birds will still sing For the new dawn I've been inclined To give up on the ride Let the angels steer the wheel But my fears seem to steal All that shines bright The light that's in my life The love you're keen to give Is the way I want to live So I'll let my sorrows lie Cause I wanna see you fly I couldn't crush a little bird Cause I know how it can hurt I wanna watch you soar Like you've never been so sure I'll hold the open door Cause you hold the key to the cure Two dancing kites Still in mind but out of sight And yet I feel the draw While I sketch another storm I'm scared I may let go When my panic starts to show But he asked me to hold tight To brave the colder nights So I'll let my sorrows lie Cause I wanna see you fly I couldn't crush a little bird Cause I know how it can hurt I wanna watch you soar Like you've never been so sure I'll hold that open door You hold the key to the cure Oh stupid vulnerability Why's it never come easily Like it did before? I've been tending a broken wing Hoping one day I will sing With the new dawn
