³Things That Might Fly Free²

March 9-10, 1999

 

Youıre a movement out the corner of my eye.

Youıre an imagination thought too much.

The music I hear recalls your face.

The people I know, they keep saying your name.

But things not meant to be arenıt there

And things that might fly free donıt care.

Youıre here, youıre thought, youıre everywhere.

Itıs time I found that you donıt care.

Youıre gentle as a feathered wind.

Youıll give someone something to save.

Your photo of life has cut off my face.

The camera aimed, so then you smiled,

So things not meant to be arenıt true

And things just might fly free to you.

Youıre there, youıre soul, youıre feeling, too.

Itıs time I found what else to do.

Iım standing here on Friday morning.

The air is still, no one else around,

But so much noise rings in my head.

I knew your thought just wouldnıt go.

When things arenıt meant to be, I know,

And things that might fly free will grow.

Youıre past, youıre now an oceanıs throw.

Itıs time I let the whole thing go.

When things not meant to be are burned,

Things that might fly free are turned.

Youıre something that I havenıt earned.

Itıs time I lost what I had yearned.
