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 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
