Lyrics

I wake to find a rose has died
And time is frozen but the bells still chime
The day has darkened but the sun still shines
And while the silken petals fall
The whispered voices tell it all
Of tortured metal on stricken walls
Of broken beads a shattered doll

Just fly away
Beyond the clouds beyond the day
Above the heads bent to the rain
The silent tears the breathless pain
Just fly away
Pass by a million flowers along the way
Leave behind the broken heart leave behind the gray
Leave behind the mourning crowds exhale and fly away

And the lowered flags will fly
The court jesters will stop and cry
For miles and miles the voices die
In silence as the rose goes by
Fly so high and brush the sun
In life and death thy will be done
In ripples from your pebble thrown
Farewell the rose is gone

Just fly away
Beyond the clouds beyond the day
Above the heads bent to the rain
The silent tears the breathless pain
Just fly away
Pass by a million flowers along the way
Leave behind the broken heart leave behind the gray
Leave behind the mourning crowds exhale and fly away
