To Live Is To Fly
Wont say I love you babe
Wont say I need you babe
But Im going to get you babe
and I will not do you wrong
Livings mostly wasting time
and I waste my share of mine
but it never feels too good
so lets not take too long
Youre as soft as glass and Im a gentle man
we got the sky to talk about
and the world to lie upon
Days up and down they come
like rain on a conga drum
forget most, remember some
but dont turn none away
Everything is not enough
nothing is too much to bear
where you been is good and gone
all you keeps the getting there
To live is to fly low and high
so shake the dust off of your wings
and the sleep out of your eyes
Its goodbye to all my friends
Its time to go again
Think of all the poetry
and the pickin down the line
Ill miss the system here
the bottoms low and the trebles clear
but it dont pay to think too much
on the things you leave behind
I may be gone but I wont be long
Ill be bringing back the melody
and the rhythm that I find
We all got holes to fill
and them holes are all thats real
some fall on you like a storm
sometimes you dig your own
But choice is yours to make
time is yours to take
some dive into the sea
some toil upon the stone
To live is to fly low and high
so shake the dust off of your wings
the sleep out of your eyes
