I heard a street singer 
play a song i knew 
and it brought me 
closer to you 
i heard a street singer 
play a song i call my own 
it brought me 
to my childhood home 
life is a blurry eyed heavy hearted 
whirlwind of a storm 
some things just hurt too 
much to cry 
memories are like shadows 
the light won't make disappear 
i still see you smiling 
with your eyes 
did you go back from 
where you came 
if i get there 
will they have my name 
if they don't i'll only 
have myself to blame 
for all these things 
true happiness is having wings
