Fly Beside Me

Joyful hearts lift us
Sunlight glinting off wings

Skyward climbing higher
Air rushing past sings

Through cotton ball clouds
Cares trail far behind

Toward destinations unknown
Dreamt only in our minds

Into clear air we fly
With love in our hearts

Overcoming the burdens
Life’s constant stops and starts

In angry turbulent skies
Wings falter and stall

Have faith in each other
Push the nose over and fall

In this descent we recover
We line up to land

Your heart beside mine
Holding you in my hands
