Hear the shadows falling from deep beneath the well Flick and shine from off of the crystal-domed angel Whose timeless eyes of long-lost years will watch and wait and show But her day to be praised came centuries ago She stands alone like one of stone Buried deep in shallow ground The lilting rain brings no more pain To ears bereft of sound Her wings caress abandoned nests Caring for them 'till they're found And when, unchained, she's loved again Time's threads will have unwound There are those who think a heart-shaped hole Directs you to a ripped-out soul But if the heart should be replaced Which way around would they now face? Although she grieves she still believes In one more power-to-be But wily Fate did therefore state She nevermore would see And then did find that Love is blind Despite His cruel decree Her sole weak trait then calmed His hate And shone on you and me
