Topic: Song! Wild Wings. Words/ Music. Helena Donovan 07.
This song came about while in Croatia last week. Where i was staying is
up a mountain. One night late i sat at the pool on my own which has low
underlighting. But the best lights were the stars. i felt i could touch them.
All kinds of insects were flying about. This particular Moth which was quite big, delighted me for quite some time. Then the inevitable happened. My heart
hammered as i tried to take her/him out with the pool net. But i was to late.
Wild WingsHelena Donovan, 2007
[G] I watched you
Dancing with[C] delight
[G]In shimmering shining
Soft pool [D]light.
[G] Happy moves to and[C] fro
[G]On gossamer [D] wings
Balance and [G] style
[G] Guided over blue pool [C] water
[G] Attracted by lights [D] glow
[G]full of cosmic moves
[C] Unknown [D]danger down [G] below.
Chorus.
[C] Soft [D] landing failed on [G] water.
[C] Wings [D] fluttered and [G] flailed
[C]Your courage to [D] survive
[G]Your dance was over [Em].now
[C] And So [D] was [G] mine.
[G] I watched you struggle
[C] To far from my reach
[G] Memories of my own [D7] life.
And all that it can [G] teach.
[C] I wondered did you [D7] cry.
As did [G] I
As did [D] I
As did [G] I.
Why Blend in with the Crowd ? When you were made to stand out !
