You were a whisper in the night And I loved you for a summer But now the garden of delights lies under snow cover Sail on in my memory I'll wave from the shoreline A ship so grand you cannot believe Disembarking on an avalanche From butterfly wings Saw my last chance In a faded dream When it's gone Wherever you land Sing your song Take this dance Avalanche We were a star-crossed fantasy That was never gonna hold us Or our future histories But maybe it was just to mold us Sail on in my memory I'll wave from the shoreline A ship so grand you cannot believe Disembarking on an avalanche From butterfly wings Sold my last chance For a faded dream When it's gone Wherever you land Sing your song Take this dance Avalanche If I had known you I would have told you Would have skipped this and Missed this Waterfall in slow motion Devotion of a love Unsuitable but beautiful If I'd have known you I'd have come back a thousand times Just for the ride Avalanche From butterfly wings Sold my last chance For a faded dream When it's gone Wherever you land Sing your song Take this dance Avalanche
