When she's sad the world is lonely
Silver clouds are crying only
for the pain she feels

so deep inside

The love she thought would save her

has somehow now enslaved her
To a dream she though she wanted
to come true


Spread your wings you can fly
But the dove is never free

In painted skies that shade the color
of your dream
Only nightmares are real

Confusion conceals the only reason
for the feelings you can't hide


When she smiles the world it shines
But the silver clouds are only there
to hide the distant storm

that's coming soon

The love she let surround her

Has become the waves that drown her
In the sea of ever-changing
Warmth and cold


Spread your wings you can fly
But the dove is never free

In painted skies that shade the color
Of your dream
Only nightmares are real

Confusion conceals the only reason
For the feelings you can't hide
You can fly


Spread your wings you can fly
But the dove is never free

In painted skies that shade the color
Of your dream
When the nightmares ensue

All that you can do is paint your sky
Another brighter shade of blue


Spread your wings you can glide
Above the violent storms
That plague your life

You paint the picture blue or grey
Fly away
