Hitching a ride on a long lost tale
A fable am I
I howl and wail
And tinkle
A bell in the lonely air
Just longing to be on my own up there
My wings hesitate in the Northern sky
A fable am I
No butterfly
I sink
Like a moth in the moon-kissed air
Just longing to be on my own up there

No butterfly
I sink
Like a moth in the moon-kissed air
Just longing to be on my own up there
