    I need to fly
    In that blue sky
    Because that is my home
    That God had made for me
    I am happy that I can fly
    In that blue sky
    Also I fly over the ocean
    And mountains
    People that are on top
    Of the mountains
    Watch me with their
    Binoculars
    In they can see me closer
    With their binoculars
    I am the bird that my father
    Made with his holy hands
    Trust me nothing bad will
    Happen to me
    In the sky
    The people will live me alone
    To fly
    Now the morning is ending
    And the afternoon
    Is here
    I will lend in the
    Ocean
    Now I must feed myself
    Because I am very hungry
    I will fish a couple of fish
    To eat from the Ocean
    To eat
    Also I need some rest
    For a while
    The people are swimming also
    In the Ocean
    Also there is no sign
    Of rain
    We are having good
    Weather for a change

    There you stood on the edge of your feather,
    Expecting to fly.
    While I laughed, I wondered whether
    I could wave goodbye,
    Knowin' that you'd gone.
    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.

    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 found,
    Knowin' it was gone.
    If I never lived without you,
    Now you know I'd die.
    If I never said I loved you,
    Now you know I'd try,
    Babe, now you know I'd try.
    Babe, now you know I'd try,
    Babe.

    Great early version of Expecting to Fly in Toronto Riverboat coffeehouse.
