The Mayfly And The Light

(album: By Your Side - 2012)

Give your heart a moment
To feel what I'm about
Give your heart a moment
You will feel that I'm feeling left out
You say good night and walk away
And I pray you will turn around
I gasp for air
I slowly drown

Give your heart a moment
To feel what I'm about
I'm still hoping for the omen
That will take away the doubt
I keep on waiting for the day
You decide to turn around
Without a thought
Without a sound

Can't you see that in the meantime
I'm just a bird without wings
And I am longing to take flight
Unexplainable attraction
Like a mayfly and the light

I'm just a bird without wings
And I am longing to take flight
But my hopes keep on disappearing
As you vanish out of sight

Looking for the merchant
That can sell me your affection
I have been searching for the signs
Been turning them inside-out
I am just a servant
Like your shadow, your reflection, so please
Give your heart a moment
To feel what I'm about

I will keep on waiting for the day
You accept my imperfection
Without a sound
Without a doubt

Can't you see that in the meantime
I'm just a bird without wings
And I am longing to take flight
Unexplainable attraction
Like a mayfly and the light
I'm just a bird without wings
And I am longing to take flight
But my hopes keep on disappearing
As you vanish out of sight

I'm just a bird without wings
And I am longing to take flight
Like a mayfly and the light
I'm just a bird without wings
And I am longing to take flight
