LYRIC FOR SALE

By Cindy Piper

Verse 1:
I met her by the river when we were just kids
She looked so beautiful, like an angel
The dragonflies were buzzing, and the water flowed
And I knew right then and there, I never wanted to let her go
Chorus:
Every time she sees a dragonfly
And its wings glisten in the light
She thinks of me, and the love we shared
But the dragonflies fly away, and I'm always there.

Verse 2:
I showed her how to fish, and we talked for hours on end
About our hopes and dreams, and plans
We knew how to fix the world, and make it a better place
And in that moment, I knew I'd never forget her face

Chorus:
Every time she sees a dragonfly
And its wings glisten in the light
She thinks of me, and the love we shared
But the dragonflies they fly away, and I'm still always there

Verse 3:
I went off to fight for justice, to defend what's right
She sent me with a kiss, I never lost sight
Of the love that we had, and the love that we had made
And every time I saw a dragonfly, I felt her by my side, I was not afraid

Chorus:
Every time she sees a dragonfly
And its wings glisten in the light
She thinks of me, and the love we shared
But the dragonflies they fly away, and now I’m no longer there

Bridge:
The war was long and hard, but I never lost hope
That one day I'd return to her, and we'd elope
But fate had other plans, and my time came to an end
And as I passed, I thought of her, my eternal friend

Chorus:
Every time she sees a dragonfly
And its wings glisten in the light
She thinks of me, and the love we shared
But dragonflies they fly away, but I will still be there.
Outro:
But the dragonflies they fly away, But I wish I was there.
But dragonflies…. They fly so high…. I’m with the dragonflies.
