She slips out of his arms at night,
it hurts to see his eyes closed in rest,
She wishes she could share his soft dreams,
but she decides this is best,
Out in the night no one can hear her cry,
and she can feel the free wind on her face,
She though he would be her anchor,
but the night calls her away from this place,
Refrain:
Only the moon sees her tears falling,
It�s only for the lonely wind that she sings,
Alone she breaks free of her rib cage,
In the night her soul spreads its wings,
She rises up ready to follow her fate,
Her spirit years to soar away,
But as she hovers on the edge of flight,
she remembers why she has to stay,
She slips back into the bedroom,
still chill from the cold night air,
She kisses him softly, covering him up,
for once she is glad to be there,
She takes off her jacket and boots,
She has kept her vow not to roam,
She crawls in bed for another sleepless night,
At least she has a reason to stay home.
(Refrain)
