Expecting to Fly

[Verse 1]

There you stood on the edge of your feather

Expecting to fly

While I laughed, I wondered whether

I could wave goodbye

[Chorus 1]

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

[Verse 2]

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

[Chorus 2]

Knowing it was gone

If I never lived without you

Now you know I died

If I never said I loved you

Now you know I tried

Babe, now you know I tried

Babe, now you know I tried

Babe
