Mercury Bird R. DafremenFly away Mercury Bird, fly away Why don't you fly? Leave the disappointing earth And chase the morning sky The dawn that marks your way Still shakes the cobwebs from your dreams And by and by The grim reality still makes you cry. Don't believe them Mercury Bird, don't believe them Don't you believe the lies Don't believe there are no faery hearts No glowing dragon's eyes You know different my friend Go the distance my friend Embrace the wonderment That filled your eyes before You were so wise before So like a child before Seems like skepticism brought you down You used to fly so free In days gone by you see Before they snuck up on your heart and tied you down. Now fly away to find that rainbow's end Fly away to find that outstretched hand Which doesn't reach to snatch your dreams The one that will not clip your wings Or hold you here Upon the gloomy ground Won't hold you down Someone to watch you soar Until the evening's coldness comes along A warm inviting heart That patient, listens for your song A love in which to stow your wings Til starlit slumber brings the day A place to rest Until the morning's dewdrops Call you out to play A voice that gentle speaks the words Which you have longed to hear them say "I'll wait here for you sweet bird, now Fly away."
