- Tears On the Wind -

The moment we can only hold a small second Ask the oldest ones that have lessons weapon I find parts of you in every love song content Tears they fall silent and fills up the river they prevent An infinite movement where the soul flames burning Out comes the warmth that spreads like yearning The race starts while life is dawning The fear of losing the grip comes creeping every morning Friends who have died in war for peace - still in my thoughts and dreams The angels protect me against demons - it seems Life is a Bridge of Sighs over a river of tears like a pray In the wind you plant your tears - the storm will blow them away 29.05.2014 A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved Contest Name :Tears On The Wind Sponsor:Gail Angel Doyle
