The ice has thinned,
It would simply break if I crossed it now.
Feathery wings never really gave way to fins.
My heart carries to much weight than it will allow.
Flying was the one rule I could bend,
It was the only way I knew how.

I can’t walk on water yet,
My wings are heavily bound.
But I will drown...
If that means I get to see you again.

Caught in the wake,
The shore has gone from view.
All I have to rely on now is Heaven’s sake,
Maybe this angel needs you.
I have a human’s heart, and all its mistakes too.

I can’t walk on water yet,
Even the graceful fall down.
And I will not make a sound...
If that means I get to see you again.
