He Holds Her, He Needs Her

Restless in the arms of the one she loved to hold
Pulling back as if to say I need space, let me alone
She cannot leave him being the man he is
When he holds her he tells her that he needs her

Restless in the arms of the one she loved to hold
Pulling back as if to say, I need space, let me alone
She wakes to the sound of growing fear outside
Inside there's silence still the urgent need to leave
The need to leave

"Beware my wings," she'd say
"My hundred eyes and changing skin
You cannot know me anymore."
She'd frown and fly and out she'd go

"Beware my wings," she'd say
"My hundred eyes and changing skin
You cannot know me anymore."
She'd frown and fly and out she'd go

"What is it?" he asks
'Beware my wings' she wants to say
Then she leans over and makes to tear them off
No more flying without out you she says and laughs
He looks at her with stones in his eyes

"Beware my wings," she'd say
"My hundred eyes and changing skin
You cannot know me anymore."
She'd frown and fly and out she'd go

Ease away the stones and let's see what's underneath
The things that pull us apart, the fears that pull love apart
Ease away the stones and let's see what's underneath
The things that pull us apart, the fears that pull love apart
