lyrics

Mostly I’ve been headed off towards the sunrise
But every now and then, I hit some resistance
A tangle of flowers and weeds and unwritten love songs
Cause me to stumble back into step with the dance

Mostly I’ve closed the gate to the pastures of plenty
But while walking along I have found several holes in the fence
And I slip through your wires and into the reach of your love
And if I listen closely, your voice almost makes some sense, singing

Take my hand and fly
Take my hand and fly, away, with me

Mostly I have escaped from the hell that’s around you
A sunlit sky and the wind at my back here to greet me
But on nights when I am alone, I can still hear your song
And the notes that surround me are torments that I’ll never see

Mostly I’m able to trust in those who surround me
But their words fall onto deaf ears every now and again
And I sink back into the reveries that keep my skies darkened
Where I hear your voice singing right on the edge of the wind

Take my hand and fly
Take my hand and fly
Take my hand and fly
Take my hand and fly, away, with me

I know that it’s ever unlikely that I’ll take your hand
I know that it’s ever unlikely that I’ll take your hand
I know that it’s ever unlikely that I’ll take your hand

I know that it’s ever unlikely that we’ll ever fly
