Bob Tilton - Tonight We Will Follow Him Down lyrics

With letters on her fingertips, she spelled her name. With fractured verse and clumsy hands, I did the same. A summer, her playground closed, boarding trains, she spoke through tears. She said that no one flies here. "We can walk to where the sun falls down, we can catch hit with both hands, can't we? I'll paint you pictures of what it's like down here if you promise me skies like red red roses." Somewhere between stations, we chased new wings and found our beauty in twilight. I saved a seat by the window, I know how you like to watch the colours blur. Light has flown from feathered arms that only dreamt of finding their skies, skies that blur blood red now. She watched the sun fall so full, so heavy it may never climb back up again. Still she said that she thought she found rainbows in my eyes.
