Saving Kari
I want to be your fairy godmother
Sprout wings and save
The day
Protect you from love's keen sting
Love you till you're okay
I
Act so like a child, unable to
Comprehend
Pain bigger than the ocean
Problems so beyond me
But you say you're barely breathing
You question all reason
To live
I want to pull you from your
Nightmares, but they follow you
Everywhere
I'd tell you how desperately I need
You, though I admit, I'm no
Good reason to stay
I'd do anything to fix you, Kari
I just don't know what
To say
Porcelain princess,
Come down from your tower
Live again, inside and out. I know it's
Hard to smile now,
But I swear soon you'll have a
Reason to
I can't wish away your pain, but I can't
Help but try
I love you all to much to let you
Go and kiss the world
Goodbye
