Kerosene Eyes

Faces of my life
Summer shades before my eyes
Spaces in twilight
Soft mistakes and bad advice
Pull me to the farthest prize
To read a story old as time

With the brightest green of foresight
And kerosene eyes
The canopy above us
Will catch you when you fly

The mountains make a frame of skies
The oceans deep as they are wise
Too many reasons why
The answers and questions lie

With the brightest green of foresight
And kerosene eyes
The canopy above us
Will catch you when you fly

The safety screen that holds us back will fail this time
We steal this breeze and float on
I will make you mine
