Lyrics

Summer days will come; melt away the snow, and I'll eat caviar with the forks in the road. A smile will grace my lips as I walk alone.
You could take the clouds out of the sky. Find a better love? God knows I will try. You can take me away from love, but you can't take the love away from me.
Love took a hold and off she goes. Blue sky in our eyes. Angels in the snow. Million dollar love now I let you go.
You could take the clouds out of the sky. Find a better love? God knows I will try. you can take me away from love, but you can't take the love away from me.
Once as strong as a thousand men; if only I knew how to pretend I'd unroll myself with butterfly wings. Paint a new world where angels sing. Look myself in the eye, drop from the edge, and fly.
You could take the clouds out of the sky. Find a better love? God knows I will try. you can take me away from love, but you can't take the love away from me.
