Lyric

Searing heat moves in your hips

You turn away from my desire

Summer’s daring temptation calls

Dripping sweat and wicked fire

Neon screams up in the sky

I was dreaming of a place

Where pretty city lights invite

“Come inside, don’t look away”

No, I can’t just leave behind

That precious smile of yours

Wings that once carried me high

Now they’re gone, you can’t ride

Deserted oasis turning dry

Still it aches for love tonight

Wings that vanished from my back

I’m no angel, can’t go back

Distant bells are ringing out

Singing all the painful truth

Memories haunted from before

Love that never fades away

If we could fly up to the sky

Would forever stop the pain?

Bleeding scars, I cried so long

Never saw you at my side

Tears ran out, I fell asleep

Woke upon your gentle lap

Sorry that I didn’t see

You were there, protecting me

Wings that once carried me high

Now they’re gone, you can’t ride

Deserted oasis turning dry

Still it aches for love tonight

Wings that vanished from my back

I’m no angel, can’t go back

Distant bells are ringing out

Singing all the painful truth

Wings erased, no way home

Rusty rails lead on alone

Lonely stations full of ghosts

Carrying memories they stole

Warmth inside your fingertips

Saved my name I thought I lost

Wings that once carried me high

Falling now but holding tight

Even if I’ve lost my light

I will stay right by your side

Let me sleep in your arms

Forever and beyond
