BECOMING A PIECE OF THE SAPPHIRE SKY

I shake off the dust that came down in my sleep

Opening up my heavenly wings

The night is full of embers

Starlight fires in the sky

I'm a child of the water, a daughter of the waves

My blood is made of the fire and rain 

Diving down, I float in deep space 

On the surface, I see the moonlight 

We all have a spark that exists deep inside

It's there when we're born

And remains when we die

The morning comes, and the ocean sighs 

The white moon fades away

To dance with nothing in my hands

To watch the gold light touch the sand 

Sing me a song that cannot land 

And my seafaring wings will fly

Never will I find myself so lost again

The waves are tumbling the gold dust sand

When everything falls, and only love stands

There is beauty in the way it ends

I watched the dream of myself on earth die

Becoming a piece of the sapphire sky

Carried off on a white bird's wing

A note in the heavenly choir

I know just where I am going, my friend

Only on earth is there ever an end

The night is full of embers

Starlight fires in the sky.
