Текст песни As Told By Ginger - And She Was Gone

She chose to walk alone
Though others wondered why
Refused to look before her,
Kept eyes cast upwards,
Towards the sky

She didn't have companions
No need for earthly things
Only wanted freedom,
From what she felt were puppet strings

She longed to be a bird
That she might fly away
She pitied every blade of grass
For planted they would stay

She longed to be a flame
That brightly danced alone
Felt jealous of the steam
That made the air its only home

Some say she wished too hard
Some say she wished too long
But we awoke one autumn day
To find that she was gone

Some say she wished too hard
Some say she wished too long
But we awoke one autumn day
To find that she was gone

The trees, they say, stood witness
The sky refused to tell
But someone who had seen it
Said the story played out well

She spread her arms out wide
Breathed in the break of dawn
She just let go of all she held

And then she was gone
