Further to Fly

Lyrics

There may come a time
 When you'll be tired
 As tired as a dream that wants to die
 Further to fly
 Further to fly
 Further to fly
 Further to fly
 
 Maybe you will find a love
 That you discover accidentally
 Who falls against you gently
 As a pickpocket
 Brushes your thigh
 Further to fly
 Effortless music from the Cameroons
 The spinning darkness of her hair
 A conversation in a crowded room going nowhere
 The open palm of desire
 Wants everything
 It wants everything
 It wants everything
 ♪
 Sometimes I'll be walking down
 The street and I'll be thinking
 Am I crazy
 Or is this some morbid little lie?
 Further to fly
 Further to fly
 Further to fly
 ♪
 A recent loss of memory
 A shadow in the family
 The baby waves bye-bye
 I'm trying, I'm flying
 There may come a time
 When I will lose you
 Lose you as I lose my light
 Days falling backward into velvet night
 The open palm of desire
 Wants everything
 It wants everything
 It wants soil as soft as summer
 And the strength to push like spring
 A broken laugh, a broken fever
 Take it up with the great deceiver
 Who looks you in the eye
 Says, "Baby, don't cry"
 Further to fly
 There may come a time
 When I will lose you
 Lose you as I lose my sight
 Days falling backward into velvet night
 The open palm of desire
 The rose of Jericho
 Soil as soft as summer
 The strength to let you go
