Paloma

Chase the high ground Where you'd rather be Where you might be found Face all aglow to leave from here To pack up and go But it takes some time to get away You will have to build from what remains To run, it takes the courage of a lamb To love, the fierceness of a storm Paloma, you wonder if you'll miss the thunder Everyone's staring, no one is caring for you now Just spread your wings, latch on to the breeze Just take the leap, and you're free Chase the higher ground Where you'd rather be Where you might be found This move may erase the troubles in your head Or expose the absence of your soul And so, it takes some time to get away And you will have to tear down what remains And I can't stand by for goodbyes So hold on to me, or lead the way Paloma, you wonder if you'll miss the thunder Everyone's staring, no one is caring for you now Just spread your wings, latch on to the breeze Just take the leap, and you're free Pace yourself when outrunning fear Take cover when it's dark And keep an even keel In your world, you're only a phone away But in my world, you're too far to feel And it may take some time to learn what's real And you may have to beg and borrow And you will surely steal Remember all those lonely sessions Turned into yesterday's lessons To never forget love To never forget love Paloma, you wonder if you'll miss the thunder Everyone's staring, but no one is caring for you now Just spread your wings, latch on to the breeze Just take the leap, and you're free from it all Paloma, you wonder if you'll miss the thunder Everyone's staring, but no one is caring for Paloma, you cry out you, beg for connection The dreams you seek are straight ahead in every direction Now you're free Now that you're, you're free Now that you're, you're free You're free Today, I watched the greatest thing of all A flock of birds, preparing for the fall
