My Dear Friends

my dear stars in the sky
you fly over me
smiling past the rooftops in the night
just out of reach
one day you'll find me

my dear fish of the sea
however many leagues apart that we may be
the same salt graces our gills
and fills my heart up so gently

as winter showers soak the ground
i wanna hold you closely
but sadly you can't see the strawberry sunrise
as long as we are under the same sky
i know you'll always be there for me

my dear birds of the trees
whichever the wind may take the falling leaves
the same clouds cushion our wings
come dawn we'll sing in bitter harmony

[instrumental]

my dear friends far away
i hope that maybe soon we'll see the break of day
but for now i'll keep you safe
in the clouds our memories are saved in shapes

as the summer solstice wears its crown
i wanna hold you closely
and someday you will see the strawberry sunrise
but as long as we are under the same sky
ohhhh mmm
