When I would play my song
|
You used to sing along.
|
I always seem to forget
|
How fragile are the very strong.
|
I'm sorry I can't steal you
|
I'm sorry I can't stay
|
So I put band-aids on your knees
|
And watch you fly away
|
|
I'm sending you away tonight
|
I'll put you on a bird's strong wing
|
I'm saving you the best way I know how
|
I hope again one day to hear you sing
|
|
You know we're not so far away
|
Get on a boat, get on a train
|
And if you ever think you're drowning
|
I'll try to slow the rain
|
In two years or so
|
Drop me a line
|
Write me a letter
|
I hope to find you're doing better, better than today, better everyday
|
|
I'm sending you away tonight
|
I'll put you on a bird's strong wing
|
I'm saving you the best way I know how
|
I hope again one day to hear you sing
|
I'm saving you the only way that I know how
|
I hope again one day to hear you sing
|
I hope again one day to see you bring your smile back around again
|
