SORCERESS

Sorceress
how did you topple this fortress?
how did you step so easy
around these mines
circumventing these lines
this time?

So relax
take your time
this heavy-hearted soldier is feeling fine
he was tired of the climb
just so tired inside
Now
He'd walk
he'd climb
he would walk and climb
and dream and dance and dive
to have these fumbly human hands
serve you all his life

so hold his heart
you'll fit in fine
and the heavy-hearted soldier might win this time
he was so tired of the child
just so tired of fire
but he would burn
he would fly
he would burn and fly and breathe
his last goodbye for you
hold the line for you
move the stone for you
shatter crowns for you
cage the sky for you

just to hear you
sleeping
in his ear
