Lyrics

You were a whisper in the night
And I loved you for a summer
But now the garden of delights lies under snow cover
Sail on in my memory
I'll wave from the shoreline
A ship so grand you cannot believe

Disembarking on an avalanche
From butterfly wings
Saw my last chance
In a faded dream
When it's gone
Wherever you land
Sing your song
Take this dance
Avalanche

We were a star-crossed fantasy
That was never gonna hold us
Or our future histories
But maybe it was just to mold us
Sail on in my memory
I'll wave from the shoreline
A ship so grand you cannot believe

Disembarking on an avalanche
From butterfly wings
Sold my last chance
For a faded dream
When it's gone
Wherever you land
Sing your song
Take this dance
Avalanche

If I had known you
I would have told you
Would have skipped this and
Missed this
Waterfall in slow motion
Devotion of a love
Unsuitable but beautiful
If I'd have known you
I'd have come back a thousand times
Just for the ride

Avalanche
From butterfly wings
Sold my last chance
For a faded dream
When it's gone
Wherever you land
Sing your song
Take this dance
Avalanche
