The Dragonfly
Lyricist:Neil Fallon, Jean-paul Gaster, Dan Maines, Tim Sult
Could've been a swan on a glassy lake Could've been a gull in a clipper's wake Could've been a ladybug on a wind chime But she was born a dragonfly
In the sun she warmed her wings And listened to the cicadas sing 'The trees are all bending in one direction Because of something'
Cross-pollination by the legs Of bees in the spring is a beautiful thing Oh when the sun goes down The fireflies come out
In a pond crept a slimy thing That hummed a theme from the Rites of Spring Pity the mate of Queen Mantis So content but so headless Katy did nothing but shiver and cry As did the dragonfly
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com In the shade the gypsies spin Among the cloves they drop their skin 'Beyond the hedge grove Over by the willows deep in the shadows'
Regeneration occurs at a furious speed Beneath the white oak tree Oh when the sun comes up The moon buds fold up In the sun she warmed her wings And listened to the Rites of Spring
Could've been a swan on a glassy lake Could've been a gull in a clipper's wake Could've been a ladybug on a wind chime But she was born a dragonfly
'Ain't ever seen it but I have heard it Sounds like the millstones when they are turning But every moment getting louder and louder And then there is silence and the smell of flowers'
