lyrics

the sound of dragonfly wings

there used to be a time
when I wouldn’t mind

dreaming day dreams all day long

dreaming of the endless yet ending nights 

dancing until dawn


dancing, spinning, laughing, singing
being my best friend was my only challenge



reaching for the stars

reaching as far as my dreams would take me

touching the horizon and

never looking back


not even to the day that had just merged into another night


there used to be a time

I was out in the ocean

catching underwater fire flies

underneath the milky way


then rising on the sound of dragonfly wings

dancing on, spinning faster, laughing louder, singing endlessly



reaching for the stars

reaching as far as my dreams would take me

grasping the horizon and
never looking back


reaching for the stars

reaching as far as my dreams would take me

grasping the horizon and
never looking back


not even to the day that had just merged into another night



there used to be a time
in the land out of time out of reach
there used to be a time
it was my time



reaching for the stars

reaching as far as my dreams would take me

embracing the horizon and
never looking back


I am reaching for the stars

reaching as far as my dreams will take me

embracing the horizon

I’m never looking back


embracing the horizon

I’m never looking back
