Expecting to Fly (iTunes Session) Metric

[Verse 1]
There you stood on the edge of your feather
Expecting to fly
While I laughed, I wondered whether
I should wave goodbye
Knowing that you'd gone

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
I tried so hard to stand as I stumbled
And fell to the ground
So hard to laugh as I fumbled
And reached for the love I had found
Knowing it was gone

[Chorus]
If I never lived without you
Now you know I'd die
If I never said I loved you
Now you know I tried, babe
Now you know I tried, babe
Now you know I tried, babe
