Upon the wings of eagles,
...adrift upon the wind,
Upon a time were lovers,
...what caused our love to end?

When I gazed upon your face,
...t'was kissed by morning sun,
Now in my thoughts when you do come,
...I feel as day is done.

Below I spy the vast expanse,
...of all that ever was,
Wilted petals of the rose,
...hearts' unrequited loves.

I look to the horizon,
...to see what is to come,
Am blinded by my memories,
...have lost to love aplomb.

Circling on the winds above,
...I fear will never land,
I fear that I shall never love,
...Since time I lost your hand.
