    Story Behind the Song
    This one has the same feel as an iceskater's glide. It's about a troubled girl freeing her soul on a frozen divide.

    I wanted to say that she was as free as the paint on a artist's canvas. I asked my mom what natural ingredients go into oil painting. That's how I got the line, "She is free, like palettes of oil and clay". Thanks, Mom!

    Lyrics
    Blades on the water on top of a frozen divide
    Free flying finally like fish on the opposite side
    Little by little the air rushing by takes away
    anything left that the world has brought her today

    She is free, like palettes of oil and clay
    (She's ok floating away)
    She is free to find herself reborn today
    (Free today)

    A child on the ice she's away in a world all her own
    Nothing can catch her she glides on a lake alone
    She floats on the water body and soul become one
    Jesus' daughter closer to God's only son

    She can see, clearly the dreams in her mind
    She can feel all of her tension unwind.

    Finally she's back to a place where she's not quite as old
    Memories are brighter, the stories of dreams she was told
    Soon she'll forget all the trouble the world let her find
    This is the place where she left her childhood behind

    She believes in fairytales learned as a child
    She will leave them here where they're safe for a while.
