The Last Mile

If I had wings the size of helicopter blades I would circle the world over and look for you If I owned bulbous sheen o'er Irish glades tinged in bronze I would enhance, accrue the worldly space of you, for I love you If I were paper or some origami glue I would fold your secrets inside my heart If I were a harbinger of love an Angel of hue a Carvaggio masterpiece of light and dark I wouldn't need to travel far to be with you If I knew the waltz I could dance to your music I would leave behind my celestial lair If I knew you needed me, I would be quick I'd turn back the time and fly through the air land at your side because I do care I'd circle the world for the ripple effect of your smile, then enter your soul, just to bridge the last mile.
