LYRICS=
I wished one time I were a bird
that flew above the world so high
and far beyond the evil reach
of what the marketplaces teach,
but... high enough, I could not go
The natural forces brought me low
since... I am not a bird
and even if I were,
no man can fly or swim or climb,
and get away from her
I dreamed of life on other stars
with no people and no cars
a place of true serenity
where life was what it meant to be
and not the sacrilege I see
when form became a god,
Maybe I was dreaming
for no matter what I thought
or the reality it brought
in feathers, flesh, or fur
Something brought me back to her
She is stronger than the wall
that was built between us all,
and she dances with the lord
in the temple of the sun
and lights the flame of hope in everyone
This one truth, all men must learn
She is irresistible,
and... you must return
I prayed and prayed with all my might
that I might get away some night
when there was no moon,
and the stars were hard to see
but certain things were never meant to be
She is always present
She is always there
in a particle of water
in a molecule of air
in and out and round and round
She is always there
She is hidden in the meadow
in a sepulcher of stone
She moves in crowds of people,
and she is all alone
You can hear her on the wind
It blows her in and out again
I tried and tried with all my might
I swore to never quit the fight
but oh! That strong, relentless pull
from some forgotten vestibule
Where the memory would stir...
and then I was back with her
She is stronger than the wall
that was built between us all,
and she dances with the lord
in the temple of the sun
and lights the flame of hope in everyone
This one truth, all men must learn
She is irresistible,
and... you must return
If you can look her in the eye
and conquer every fear
She will know your love is true
and then... she will appear
The guardians surround her
but... in truth... she doesn’t sleep
and at times, she is so beautiful
She makes the angels weep
No man can escape her
and no man ever will
but it is her right to set you free
She did that very thing for me
She has that right and power
to set a true man free
She is love impossible
and... this she proved to me
It is true that you must catch her
and promise to protect her
even though she can’t be harmed
and even though she cannot die
Her heart is still quite winnable
if you look her in the eye
and conquer every fear
She will know your love is true
and then... she will appear
She is stronger than the wall
that was built between us all,
and she dances with the lord
in the temple of the sun
and lights the flame of hope in everyone
This one truth, all men must learn
She is irresistible,
and... you must return
If you can look her in the eye
and conquer every fear
She will know your love is true
and then... she will appear
and then...... she will appear
and... you will be gone from here
and... you will be gone from here
