Iron

Dedicated to the Iron Giant


One boy- one boy friendless and alone
One man- one man built only to roam
Each one holding a part needed to heal
The heart of the other- make the wounds seal...

One boy- one boy with iron in his heart
One man- one man with compassion at the start
Each one finds his bond- that bond makes him real
Iron man, boy of flesh- together, they are sealed-

So they
Fly
Winter below
Trees flow- it's time to
Fly
Stars and clouds
Floating 'round- soar and see
A place to be

Steel forged- bound to fires of life
Steel clad- bonds uncuttable by a knife
Bonds- strong bonds made in rising sun
Yet he cries- and he cries 'I Am Not A Gun'

Instrumental

Run fast- cannon armed 'gainst your gun
Run far- with fight only just begun
One boy- asks you to choose- be done
Aim, careful aim- but you are not a gun...

So he
Flies
Saving begun
Second sun- it's time to
Fly
Chaos embraced
Winning the race- soar and see
A place to be
Fly- oh so high...
