She was so gentle

[Chorus]
She was so gentle, warm and bright,
She had no wings, yet knew how to fly.
She lived each day with all her might,
Could reach with both hands to the sky.
[Verse 1]
He seemed the one she hoped to find,
He swore he’d carry her through life.
He hid his longings in each line,
And dreamed that she’d become his wife.
It all became a fairy tale,
A goddess in her wedding gown.
Bright hopes were shining through her veil,
Her dream came true — she wore its crown.
[Chorus]
She was so gentle, warm and bright,
She had no wings, yet knew how to fly.
She lived each day with all her might,
Could reach with both hands to the sky.
[Verse 2]
But day by day, without a sound,
Their love grew tired of hurt and pain.
Their harmony was never found,
And habit held them in its chain.
We cannot start our tale anew,
No river ever runs upstream.
The ship has sailed beyond our view,
But still we have to live and dream.
[Chorus]
She was so gentle, warm and bright,
She had no wings, yet knew how to fly.
She lived each day with all her might,
Could reach with both hands to the sky.
[Verse 3]
She let him go. Let people say
That fortune’s wheel had kindly turned.
She asked for nothing, went her way —
No spiteful games, no bridges burned.
She changed her dream, but not her heart,
Nor all the things she held as true.
She found the strength to make a start,
And paint her world in colors new.
[Final Chorus]
She was so gentle, warm and bright,
She had no wings, yet knew how to fly.
She lived each day with all her might,
Could reach with both hands to the sky.
