| Don’t ask me to surrender
 | 
| Her voice fell tired and spent
 | 
| My hopes and dreams, a silent heart
 | 
| I carry here within
 | 
| Her outstretched wings left tattered
 | 
| A sail aged with rust
 | 
| A breath in time that’s yours and mine
 | 
| It belongs to only us
 | 
| And I will write her name and cast it to the sky
 | 
| Silhouettes recede into a mother’s tearful eyes
 | 
| A host of angels clamor to her side
 | 
| A light dissolves to kiss the wind
 | 
| Release the dragonfly
 | 
| See the rose within the field of white
 | 
| She’s searching for the grail
 | 
| But the rain descends to snatch the light
 | 
| From distant dying suns
 | 
| A faint resounding in the night
 | 
| Calls angels' wings to beat
 | 
| Singing silent lip-sewn songs
 | 
| But the distance is too deep
 | 
| And I will write her name and cast it to the sky
 | 
| Silhouettes recede into a mother’s tearful eyes
 | 
| A host of angels clamor to her side
 | 
| A light dissolves to kiss the wind
 | 
| Release the dragonfly
 | 
| And I will write her name and cast it to the sky
 | 
| As precious moments will slip away in time
 | 
| Angels fall from grace and sometimes heroes die
 | 
| But tonight, my love, ascend the gates
 | 
| Release the dragonfly
 | 
| And I will write her name and cast it to the sky
 | 
| Silhouettes recede into a mother’s tearful eyes
 | 
| A host of angels clamor to her side
 | 
| A light dissolves to kiss the wind
 | 
| Release the dragonfly
 | 
| And I will write her name and cast it to the sky
 | 
| As precious moments will slip away in time
 | 
| Sometimes angels fall, but love will never die
 | 
| Tonight my soul is something more
 | 
| Calls the dragonfly |
