Vance Gilbert – Dragonfly Wings

Vance Gilbert – Dragonfly Wings Lyrics

Artist: Vance Gilbert
Song: Dragonfly Wings

I know where you’re going
And why you’re on the wing
You left behind a green-eyed girl
And she still sings about you

You were her whole world
You were her everything
You made a promise that she’d never
Have to live without you

The timing of your return
Couldn’t be more tragic
She’s got a practical heart now
She don’t go in for magic

Do you believe that you’re the king
Of everything
With your dragonfly wings?
Of all the miles and miles of sky

That could have been
And this is where they bring you
Hum your breezy lullaby
You watch her take a lover

What did you expect, for her to
Stay your human host?
Comes a time you’ll have to find
Another place to hover

Or did you forget she never
Did believe in ghost?
She believes in fields of green
And other places you’ve been seen

She’ll let you go where the rivers flow
Now you should do the same
Do you believe that you’re the king
Of everything

With your dragonfly wings?
Of all the miles and miles of sky
That could have been
And this is where they bring you

You and your familiar
Rulers of your corner of the sky
And when the whole thing comes undone
You just couldn’t play nice

Now she’s the one who pays the price [Yeah]
Iridescent memory
Summer evening sun
Have a little mercy

On the newly unloved
‘Cause if she sees you on the wing
She never will be done
A broken-hearted second chance

Is better than none
She’s sure to recognize you
As you sweep in for your thrill
Go spread your fascination

To the children on the hill
Do you believe that you’re the king
Of everything
With your dragonfly wings?

Of all the miles and miles of sky
That could have been
And this is where they bring you
Do you believe that you’re the king

Of everything
With your dragonfly wings?
Of all the miles and miles of sky
That could have been

And this is where they bring you
Ba da ba dee day
Ba da ba dee day
La ba da ba dee day

Ba da ba dee day
Ba da ba dee day day
La ba da ba dee day
