welcome home
her eyes know
mistakes you've made
the plans you laid

your love, it means so much
a simple ring, your fingers touch
break away, break away
your smile , your face, light shines through
burning truth, it is too soon to ignore

but she's not here
standing clear
in front of you
it's just a dream

times up, she's gone away
you had your time, but it won't stay
not this time, not this time
soon enough, you'll kill them all
every chance to break your fall
you're giving in

but she's the one
bright as the sun
stops you there
right on the stairs
and falling back
when stars are black
and stripes on fire
