To Live Is To Fly
(专辑: High, Low And In Between - 1972)
Won't say I
love you, babe, Won't say I
need you, babe, But I'm gonna get you babe And I
will not do you wrong. Living's mostly wasting time And I'll waste my share of mine But it never feels to good, So let's don't take to long. You're soft as glass And I'm a
gentle man; We got the
sky to talk about And the
earth to lie upon. Days, up and down they come Like rain on a
congadrum Forget most, remember some But don't turn none away. Everything is not enough And nothing is to much to bear. Where you been is good and gone All you keep is the
getting there. To live is to fly Low and high, So shake the
dust off of your wings And the
sleep out of your eyes. Goodbye to all my friends It's time to go again Think of all the
poetry And the
picking down the
line I'll miss the
system here The
bottom's low And the
treble's clear But it don't pay to think to much On things you leave behind. I
will be gone But it won't be long I
will be a'bringing back the
melodies And rhythm that I
find. We all got holes to fill Them holes are all that's real. Some fall on you like a
storm, Sometimes you dig your own. The
choice is yours to make, Time is yours to take; Some sail upon/dive into the
sea, Some toil upon the
stone. To live is to fly Low and high, So shake the
dust off of your wings And the
sleep out of your eyes; Shake the
dust off of your wings And the
tears out of your eyes.
