lyrics

Like wispy clouds
On a crisp fall day
Settling sounds
And light sunrays

Birds in flight
Escaped its cage
The truth inside
To seize the day

Distance crossed
Dissolve your fear
Expand my lungs
Let Him draw near

Of hope and joy
And light and warmth
Empty boxes
Unpacked and stored

Waiting on the day
That I can move on
Won't waste another breath
On what is unknown

Moving on
Qu'est-ce que c'est?
Making time
For feeling safe

I won't fight
The way I feel
Let it linger
So I can heal

My pretending
Can't sustain
So I'm leaving
you today

One more time
Before I go
Oh I'll give you
Quite a show

The free life on
Mountain roads that I know
Clouds of smoke
And misty tears as they roll

With each breath
Something fell away
There was no word
To ease the ache
It had no place
Inside of me
But there it was, holding me

As she said to me:
And you? When will you begin that long journey into yourself?

And I replied:
I'm…

Waiting on the day
That I can move on
Won't waste another breath
On what is unknown

The free life on
Mountain roads that I know
Clouds of smoke
And misty tears as they roll
