Far below the city's glow Lie the flowers blooming in the shadows They comfort me, saving me From all I see Then you came with eyes of pain Haunting blue and gentle Like a spring rain Silently beckoning For a love to cease your inner tears I belong here with you Though the earth cries inside me I will fly High into the storm Far from the light I will be strong Because they need you Because I love you You close your eyes now I will be gone But my love for you will go on Darkest skies, hollow eyes But the stars burn brighter Than you realize It may be destiny That sheds our tears You must leave me behind Though the night howls inside you You must fly High into the storm Far from the light You must be strong Because they need you Because I love you You close your eyes now And I will be gone But my love for you will go on lyrics copyrighted 2008 by Kate Covington
