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

Knowing 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

Knowing it was gone

If I ever lived without you

Now you know I'll die

If I ever 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
