Patty Griffin
Up and Flying
[Verse 1]
Mostly I'm alone a lot
Mostly I guess you're not
Forgive me if I stop and stare
I was just a little unprepared
[Verse 2]
The world has fallen at your feet
Yeah, you hardly even missed a beat
And everyday your heart beats a little stronger
For me my nights are getting longer
[Verse 3]
I should be farther on by now
I just can't catch a breeze somehow
I should be free to leave the ground
With no dream left to weigh me down
[Chorus]
You've gone on a million miles from here
Swept up like a feather in the air
And you make it look so easy
Oh it hardly seems quite fair
Baby I'm still tryin'
To get myself
Up and flying
[Verse 4]
Tell me what I have to do
I've been tryin' to deny the truth
But here it is, the living proof
The one I loved loves someone new
[Chorus]
You've gone on a million miles from here
Swept up like a feather in the air
And you make it look so easy
Oh, it hardly seem quite fair
Baby I'm still tryin'
To get myself
Up and flying
Baby I'm still tryin'
To get myself
Up and flying
