Give You Wings

I hear you with your friends outside
 I see you walking through the door
 I'd freely give my one last breath
 To hold you just once more
 People tell me I'm so brave
 People ask me to be strong
 I fumble through these empty days
 Wondering how I'll carry on
 For you
 You should always come home
 You my child
 You should always come home to me
 They tell me I should give you wings
 They tell me spirits never die
 In the brokenness of everything
 I sit, and wait, and cry
 For you
 You should always come home
 You my child
 You should always come home to me
 They tell me I should give you wings
 They tell me I should let you go
 They tell me I should give you wings
 But how? I don't know
 Someday I might give you
 Give you wings
