The Mayfly and the Light

Give your heart a moment

To feel what I'm about

Give your heart a moment

The feel that I'm feeling left out

You say good night and walk away

And I pray you will turn around

I gasp for air

I slowly drown

Give your heart a moment

To feel what I'm about

I'm still hoping for the omen

That will take away the doubt

I keep on waiting for the day

You decide to turn around

Without a thought

Without a sound

Can't you see that in the meantime

I am just a bird without wings

And I am longing to take flight

Unexplainable attraction

Like a mayfly in the light

I am just a bird without wings

And I am longing to take flight

But my hopes keep on disappearing

As you vanish out of sight

Looking for the merchant

That can sell me your affection

I've been searching for the signs

Been turning them inside-out

I am just a servant

Like your shadow, your reflection

So please, give your heart a moment

To feel what I'm about

And I will keep waiting for the day

You accept my imperfections

Without a sound

Without any doubt

Can't you see that in the meantime

I am just a bird without wings

And I am longing to take flight

Unexplainable attraction

Like a mayfly in the light

I am just a bird without wings

And I am longing to take flight

But my hopes keep on disappearing

As you vanish out of sight

I am just a bird without wings

And I am longing to take flight

Like a mayfly in the light

I am just a bird without wings

And I am longing to take flight
