Not My Circus - Esperanza Lyrics

Winter winds blow all the way
Frost unfurled, birds unburdened only yesterday
Eyes like the shape, fat on the feast
Subtle minds betray a wayward glance

January's freeze brings thawing spring
Bending bows drip to roots burgeoning
Blossom in hand doubles worth
Display a dipole dance

Esperanza
Any longer
I waited til I couldn't hold
Any longer
And my fear and my fear and my fear
Gathered cold
Now the ferns unwhirl
As fingers curl

Rays run in veins on longer days
Blushing cheeks and softer backs
Rise to an embrace
Waited so long
Feathers float
In dandelion air

Esperanza
Any longer
I waited til I couldn't hold
Any longer
And my fear and my fear and my fear
Gathered cold
Now the fern's unwhirled
Like fingers curled

Scent of the one
Solitude's son
Hands intertwine
Yours and mine

Daylight on the wing
Petals open up to give a gilded hue
Starlight's everything
I'll wrap it in the box that I am bringing you

Fate, heat, find, home, you
