My husband and I have history with this song. Our first date was to a Dreaming concert, and when we hit a really bad rough spot shortly after our engagement, he sang this song to me.
GENIUS SONG WRITING & VERY HONEST LYRICS,THAT'S WHAT MAKES THE DREAMING SO.. POWERFUL !! THE DREAMING IS SWEET AWESOME PERFECTION !! THX 4 THE EXPERIENCE !!
I've waited my whole life to find you I've dreamed like the desert dreams of rain When the heavens opened up And you descended the raindrops through my fingers slipped away Now I'm so afraid that you'll fly away And no cage on earth could ever make you stay Now I'm so afraid that you'll fly away I was afraid you'd fly away When the cage is open We'll fly away So I tried to be everything that you wanted But failed to be anything at all I knew there'd come a day when you'd discover I'm just an ordinary human after all And I'm so afraid that you'll fly away And no cage on earth could ever make you stay Now I'm so afraid that you'll fly away I was afraid you'd fly away When the cage is open We'll fly away These wings are broken These wings won't fly I'm trapped here on the ground While you reach for the sky But I'm so afraid that you'll fly away And no cage on earth could ever make you stay But I'm so afraid to let it fly away When the cage is open We'll fly away When the chains are broken And the cage is open Will my heart be broken? We'll fly away
