Buffalo Springfield - Expecting to Fly Lyrics

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'd 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
