Paul Simon - Further to Fly lyrics
[Paul Simon - 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
And 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 and the
Strength to let you go
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
And 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 and the
Strength to let you go
