Lyrics
There was a time when I was flying
Flying so high so high that I
Didn't dare to question why
Or if the sky was my space
All my feathers melted when I felt the rain
I need (I need)
To leave it all behind me (To leave)
I know (I know)
I have to go (I have to go)
And move on
How can I cope with the end? (How can I cope with the end?)
Someone please help me comprehend
Where will I be when I land? (Where will I be when I land?)
Tell me then I will be okay
All the pieces cracked and fractured can't be saved
I need (I need)
To leave it all behind me (To leave)
I know (I know)
I have to go (I have to go)
And move on and on and on
Move on and on
I am leaving
Behind these wings
No longer lift me I think
It's time to swim
The tide is turnin'
The tide is turnin'
The tide is turnin'
The tide is turnin' (The tide is)
Turnin' the tide is turnin'
The tide is turnin' (The tide is)
Turnin' the tide is turnin'
The tide is turnin' (The tide is)
Turnin' the tide is turnin'
The tide is turnin' (The tide is)
Turnin' the tide is turnin'
