She’s fire and air
Freedom in the glimpse of her
She’s far and near
Fearless and filled with fear
She’s wild and reckless
Soaring in the freedom of her thought
She’s fire and air
Fluttering in the grasp of your hand
She’ll burn and she’ll scold
Understanding of her will never unfold
She’s your mystery and your curse
Soaring beyond you, you’re not her choice
She’s fire and air
Waiting for that which moves between both
She’s lost and found
Contently observed by him: level with the ground
She’s not yours and could never be
Belonging to the one with the key
She’s fire and air
And he knows what you don’t
The powers, the secret; that made her me
The truth of it: to keep me free
The key is not to know it all
It’s to watch me soar
