Joshua Kadison Begging For Grace Dragonfly Wings Lyrics

Begging For Grace Dragonfly Wings Lyrics

I was locked up in a crazy place

They found me on the streets begging for grace

I don't remember but they say I lost my mind



She was in the garden after the rain

In a white robe we were dressed the same

She took my hand and said my eyes looked kind

Then she said,



"You must be the boy she sent me from the other side

Well, I've been waiting for the longest time

And you can tell her it's been a crazy ride

Tell her I think I've learned the lessons she sent me to learn

Tell her I think I know what I wanna be should I return



I wanna be blues, I wanna be greens

I wanna be flying on dragonfly wings"



Sittin' on the banks where the river twists

Showing me the marks up and down her wrists

She told me there was sacred writing in the lines



She said the language was from a long time ago

And she could find out all she wants to know

If she could just decipher those sacred signs



"You must be the boy she sent me from the other side

Well, I've been waiting for the longest time

And you can tell her it's been a crazy ride

Tell her I think I've learned the lessons she sent me to learn

Tell her I think I know what I wanna be should I return



I wanna be blues, I wanna be greens

I wanna be flying on dragonfly wings"



I found her walking in the northern fields

I said I had to leave, 'cause they called me healed

I told her I could see my face in the mirror again



She said, "Should you ever see the Dragonfly Queen

Tell her I'm a waiting for my wings

Tell her I'll be waiting where the river bends



I wanna be blues, I wanna be greens, I wanna be flyin' on

I wanna be blues, I wanna be greens, I wanna be flyin' on

I wanna be blues, I wanna be greens, I wanna be flyin' on dragonfly wings



Blues, greens, flyin' on dragonfly wings

Blues, greens, flyin' on dragonfly wings



I wanna be blues, greens, flyin' on dragonfly wings

Blues, greens, flyin' on dragonfly wings

Blues, greens, flyin' on dragonfly wings
