Find the wind beneath our wings

We had a good run, it was exhilarating in love and living
Now we must fade like the morning mist in the first light
You and I are birds, we have soared the skies, dauntlessly
The dawn has arrived, we have to fly off alone yet strong

We flew under darkened skies, fiery ones too
Watched sunsets, as we flew into them, painted red
We watched each other, breaking each other's falls
We have become everything we both offered to have

In this final flight, as your mind has already flown away
Let me watch you fly away first, fade into a speck
Then perch one last time by myself, soak in our memories
Circle our old nest, let the winds carry me away
