Fly Away Songtext

von Ron Pope

I've been living in the desert
Been counting all the stars
Been riding where the wind blows
Been cursing in the dark
I am shouldering a burden
One that bends me 'til I break
When I'm drowning in the ocean
I wish that I could fly away

I woke up somewhere in Texas
On the road to someplace else
Then I stared off at a mountain
Feeling sorry for myself
And I wonder how you're sleeping
In our bed on this cold day
I'm so tired of being lonely
I wish that I could fly away

Once I wandered near the river
On a crystal afternoon
And I thought about the future
Yeah I thought about the truth
I know I can't live forever
But you make me wanna stay
So I'll do my best to hold you
And one day we'll both fly away
