Up In The Air
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Pass away the hours
Hear the footsteps of the past
Walking up the stairs of time
Knowing that I'm trapped
Cold winds of indifference
Persuade a movement south
Thinking that it's better there
The warmer climes that we seek out
Poor bird flies up in the air
Never getting anywhere
And how much misery can one soul take?
Trying to fly away might have been your first mistake
Poor bird flies up in the air
Never getting anywhere
Picking petals off a flower
Loves me, loves me not
Is love another way to count
The things you haven't got?
We wish the best to all our friends
Young and old alike
When the dust has settled in the sky
You can have anything you like
Poor bird flies up in the air
Never getting anywhere
And how much misery can one soul take?
Trying to fly away might have been your first mistake
Poor bird flies up in the air
Never getting anywhere
Poor bird flies up in the air
Never getting anywhere
And how much misery can one soul take?
Trying to fly away might have been your first mistake
Poor bird flies up in the air
Never getting anywhere
