Fly My Way:

For if my love did come to stay, In shadows across an empty sky, I would then light up the way, So she could land nearby. Have faith must I in my wishing well, And flood it with coins every sunny day, And hope shall I in a magical spell, Upon shores one day we both shall lay. An ocean then may bring us in, As seagulls fly above our rest, We'll find our peace, we shall begin, And watch the sunset in the west. /|\

That's exactly how it should be, in my humble opinion. I like reading that you think so, too!
