Jars Of Clay Fly Farther Lyrics

Fly Farther Lyrics

He picked her up some flowers on a Sunday afternoon
Set out on the porch
swing underneath the crescent moon
A lifetime seemed to pass staring at the
skies
And on the swing he gave her the ring
There were tears in her
eyes
He said I pray I'm not alone in my dreams about forever
That you and
I could become one and always be together
We'd grow old and wise through all
the days
For worse or for better
And I'll be true beside you
Now more
than ever
My time flies but we'll fly farther
Into the night where the
eyes of loneliness can never bother
All the dreams of together
Uneclipsed
by never never
My time flies
I see it in your eyes
But we'll fly
farther

Fifty years have ridden off into the sunset
The tears that we
have cried have overflown
And here we are counting scars
Wounds of life's
unending upsets
You with me, and I with you, and I will never
forget

My time flies but we'll fly farther
Into the night where the
eyes of loneliness can never bother
All the dreams of together
Uneclipsed
by never never
My time flies
I see it in your eyes
But we'll fly
farther

He picked her up some flowers on a Sunday afternoon
Road the
greyhound bus past the house they used to swoon
He knelt beside the grave
hung his head a teardrop fell
On the stone the epitaph shown the words he
knew so well...

My time flies but we'll fly farther
Into the night
where the eyes of loneliness can never bother
All the dreams of
together
Uneclipsed by never never
My time flies
I see it in your
eyes
But we'll fly farther
