Expecting to Fly
Neil Young
There you stood on the edge of your feather
Expecting to fly
While I laughed, I wondered whether
I should wave bye
Knowing that you've 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, ended with a cry
I tried so hard to stand
But I stumbled and fell to the ground
So hard to laugh as I fumbled
And reached for the love I found
Knowing it had gone
If I ever lived without you
Now you know that I'd die
If I ever said I loved you
Now you know that I'd try
Babe, now you know I'd try
Babe, now you know I'd try
Babe, now you know I'd try
Babe, now you know I'd try
