Wings

As a child I played hockey
 Idolised the ponies underneath
 The saddles plain
 And shoulders warring our country
 Into night
 ♪
 Took a branch and then a ball
 Found the greenest apple and carved and arrow
 And saw it grow
 And foraged into the forest without fear
 ♪
 Spied a bird with fragile wings
 Cut a piece for balance, never more these passings
 Tell me why does it worry this so much?
 Worry this so much
 Threw a shower to set her free
 Tried to bend the arrow back into embroidery
 But then her motor was bright in
 Needle string
 ♪
 Cried and tried to make her breathe
 Bath the sky the bird one
 Thousand birds in every tree
 So I could let mother find her
 Rain on me
 ♪
 How to be a harmless man
 I only wish to understand the power in my hands
 Well time will show that a one man, come
 Again
 ♪
 Took apprentice as a slave
 Even angels wish to clip their wings and make mistakes
 That oh, the apples get sweeter every year
 Sweeter every year
