Rest Upon My Wings

Rest upon my wings Climb up the old well The old well of solitude Of regrets,anger and pain. The old well of darkness The old well of vacant spaces Sad tears that keep on falling like somber November rain. Rest upon my wings Climb up the old well Let loose the noose wrapped tightly around your neck Do not let yester's echoes Keep calling you back. Do not fall apart.. Listen with your heart to music in the streets Uplifting gentle spirits of sweetest melodies. Rest upon my wings Climb up the old well Just like a playful butterfly I glide and take you there. Closer to the sun,closer to the one The one and only garden where wistful flowers sway where pretty little daises Whisper-out your name. Rest upon my wings Climb up the old well Just like a playful butterfly I glide and take you there To that magical place where joy is not a myth where Villagers wear a smile They live and not exist To that magical place where nobody is too busy to stop by and be your friend Where everyone is willing to hold on hand in hand Rest upon my wing Climb up the old well Just like a playful butterfly I glide and take you there. Feel free to fly with me Open your eyes to see This haven that's been painted For them, for you and me.
