Life can be a roller-coaster of highs and lows, especially for those with mental health issues and their loved ones. This is about a couple of friends of mine. (Lynden)

lyrics

She’s seen it before
That wonderful madness in his eyes
She’s heard it before
He’s taking his dreams
He’s going to fly

The rain is sparkling diamonds
The sun is made of gold
The future is full of love and light
Let’s run, here’s my hand to hold

She’s seen it before
That sparkle of magic in his eyes
She’s heard it before
He’s taking his dreams
He’s going to fly

Grasping at each brilliant thought
Wild schemes rushing past
She knows where this will end
The ecstasy never lasts

She’s seen it before
Creative genius and madness there
Dancing with devils, delusions and plans
He hasn’t a care
He wakes one morning low
The world is thick and grey
She brings him tea and toast and love
Tells him the good will come again one day

She’s seen it before
The endless sadness in his eyes
Whispering care
Takes the time to hold him as he cries

She waits for his return
He’ll see a brand new day
He’ll bring her tea and toast and love
He says the good has come again to stay

She’s seen it before
That wonderful madness in his eyes
She’s heard it before
He’s taking his dreams
He’s going to fly
He’s going to fly
