Nighttime is fast approaching You are near, Yet so far away What do you admire? Who do you care for? Words catch in my throat at the sight... ... of people risking their lives... ... and of diaphanous beauty If you are going to travel the skies ... I want to become your wings. One day, I promise that I will have... ... supple wings that will never snap... ... no matter how strong the wind may be. We grew up dreaming the same dream... ... in a town where the white flowers bloom, But now... Threading through the gaps in the clouds... ... is a silver ship of the skies. Looking up, hands outstretched, It slipped through our fingers, ... grew smaller, and disappeared. When everything goes off into the endless skies Where does it go to, I wonder? The place of peace we are searching for The path the angels descend upon It must surely lead into my arms When everything goes off into the endless skies Where does it go to, I wonder? The place of peace we are searching for The path the angels descend upon It must surely lead into my arms If you are going to travel the skies ... I want to become your wings. One day, I promise that I will have... ... supple wings that will never snap... ... no matter how strong the wind may be.
