Promising from In Memory by Aquiline

Some shining day
In a murmuring of leaves
You sense the change
You stand out in the street and wait for rain
In the heavy air
There’s a stinging on
Your skin

Open your eyes
I see the view through your windows
Out to the sky
Before you

Some shining day
You’ll gather up everything and
You’ll fly away
To greener fields

A covered lamp
A restless sleep
A windy night
When you call my name

A knowing glance
A secret game
A promised gift
When you ask me to

A pocket book
A lucky charm
A spiral shell
When you dream of
Just what you want to be
I can’t stand still
Just watching you
Raise a million wings

Bathe in the sound
Of all those songs that you sing when
no-one's around

Time’s on your side
As every moment receives you
Stay open eyed
In wonder

A lasting word
A naked flame
A ringing bell
When you call my name

A private dance
A secret wish
A promised place
When you ask me to

A final look
A sudden calm
A broken spell
When you dream of
Just what you want to be
I can’t stand still
Just watching you
Raise a million wings

She’s surrendered to the air
She’s alive to every turn
Fly
Giving up and giving ground
Given away
Hanging on to every word
Raise a million wings
