Flight is a beautiful word
Flowered with consonance, that's what I'll follow forever
I am a beautiful bird
Fluttered and floating, swollen and hollowed for heaven
Do what you want with me
Lost in your captivity
Learning capacity
For make-believing everything is really hanging on
Slipping away from the party
Totally vacant, everyone gone from their bodies
You were outside kissing another
She was a friend of mine, I was surprised to discover
I wrapped my arms around her
She was a beautiful figure
There are no enemies
We're make-believing everything is really hanging on
♪
There is a castle that stands
High in the canyon, the blue knights are crying together
A child is holding my hand
She is directing, the red crystal pine with a feather
Do what you want with me
Lost in your captivity
Learning capacity
For make-believing everything is really hanging on
Really hanging on
Really hanging on
