Up and Flying — текст песни (Patty Griffin)

Mostly I`m alone a lot
Mostly I guess you`re not
Forgive me if I stop and stare
I was just unprepared
That the world has fallen at your feet
You hardly even missed a beat
And every day those wings beat a little stronger
And every night for me just gets a little longer

You`ve gone on a million miles from here
Swept up like a feather in the air
You make it look so easy, it doesn`t seem quite fair
Baby I`m still trying
To get myself up and flying

I should be farther along by now
I just can`t catch a breeze somehow
I should be free to leave the ground
No dreams left to weigh me down
Could you tell me what I have to do
I`ve been trying to deny the truth
But here it is, living proof
The one that I love loves someone new

You`ve gone on a million miles from here
Swept up like a feather in the air
You make it look so easy, it doesn`t seem quite fair
Baby I`m still trying
To get myself up and flying

You make it look so easy, it doesn`t seem quite fair
Baby I`m still trying
To get myself up and flying
