Fly

Singing and turning and crying elated

feeling sorrow for life that has faded

for what we had and what we left behind

Sent around to the beginning

starting out, never ending

what we had and what we left behind

What we had

what we left behind

Screaming aloud and laughing and crying

cursing all of this death and dying

what we had and what we left behind

Counting the cost of love that was lost

looking back over bridges we’ve crossed

at what we had and what we left behind

What we had

what we left behind

Scheming and dreaming and loving and leaving

waking to a life that was sleeping

to what we have and what we left behind

Bruised and battered, broken and bending

searching for a love never ending

for what we had and what we left behind

What we have

what we left behind

Holding the pain increases the strife

letting go opens a life

into what you have and what you’ve left behind

Skimming along the surface of light

leaving your ground, taking flight

into what you have and what you’ve left behind

Fly, into what you have and what you’ve left behind

What we have

what we left behind
