Too Heavy to Fly

it’s so hard to sit and watch you give it all away 'cause i pay for it everyday
if i knew the shifting shibboleth i would pray on my knees by the river banks
everything will turn around
all my dreams will hit the ground like a bird in flight
whose heart’s suddenly too heavy to fly
it takes all i’ve got to lift my head on the days that you say that you’re
leavin'
i seek clarity in rosemary facing east to the breeze that will clear my mind
everything will turn around
all my dreams will hit the ground like a bird in flight
whose heart’s suddenly too heavy to fly
fly
after all the time you’ve been away you might think i would sink and surrender
though the weary miles are in my eyes there’s a flame that the pain can’t put
out
everything will turn around
all my dreams will hit the ground
what we lost will be found like a bird in flight
whose heart’s suddenly too heavy to fly
fly
