Expecting To Fly Lyrics

Expecting To Fly

There you stood on the edge of your feather,

   expecting to fly.

 While I laughed, I wondered whether 

 I could wave goodbye,

 Knowin' that you'd gone.

 By the summer it was healing,

   we had said goodbye.

 All the years we'd spent with feeling

   ended with a cry,

 Babe, ended with a cry,

 Babe, ended with a cry.

 

 I tried so hard to stand

   as I stumbled and fell to the ground.

 So hard to laugh as I fumbled

   and reached for the love I found,

 Knowin' it was gone.

 If I never lived without you,

   now you know I'd die.

 If I never said I loved you,

   now you know I'd try,

 Babe, now you know I'd try.

 Babe, now you know I'd try,

 Babe.
