New Beginnings

by Justin Lacroix


She sighs
don't take away this angel of mine
her eyes
swell into a flood of goodbyes
each tear draining her will to the ground
where she kneels
where she kneels

where she's
waiting for another day
when the ground will shake again
waiting for another day
to be strong
waiting for another day
when it all will slip away
waiting for another day
new beginnings

in time
she grows to once again see his smile
so bright
she rushes out the door to say bye
they stay watching the leaves waltz to the ground
where they lay
where they lay

(chorus)

still feels
her fingers running through that dark hair
still hears
his laughter running round in the air
she thrusts her fingers deep into the ground
where she grows
still she grows

(chorus)
