come  now, and now  my love,
 and leave your dying  desert  to the rains
give  up your treasured  wounds,
let  go the tempting  memory of  the pain.
give  up the vows  you've taken
 and you will live,  and you will learn  to fly  away,
  and you will fly.
and  you will live  my love
 and see the stars  regain your  starless night
and  you will find  your sun
 and learn the magic  meaning  of it's light
 all  souls will be yours  to cherish
rising, falling,  in their earthly  flight
  and you will fly
and  i would love  my love
 and he would seek  a refuge in  my eyes
but  no resource  of love,
could  keep him from  the fire  where loving dies
  and  i would reach out my hand  as he was
 falling, falling  to his  home on  high
 and he would fly
give  up your treasured  wounds,
let  go the tempting  memory of  the pain
 give  up the vows  you've taken
 and you will live,  and you will learn  to fly  again,
  and you will fly.
