Into the night like a bird
my heart will take flight
With gossamer wings
sparkling and bright
Through the deep endless sea
of all those twinkling stars.
The journey will be long,
and will take me so far.
Over a road filled with perils
is where my journey starts.
To get to the one
who holds the key to my heart.
Heartaches and disappointments
together with anger and pain
Keep coming around
and my spirit they drain.
The nights they went by
and sometimes all hope was lost.
To try again was an option,
was it really worth the cost.
To find what I'm missing
and yearning for daily
The heart knows the reason
and says yes just maybe.
