If I Was A Bird (Live At The House Of Blues, New Orleans / 2003)

Sometimes blindness finds me and leads me through ignorance

Not allowing us to gain experience so we become lifeless

At other times I cover with self pity or work aimlessly through reality

So occasionally I choose to travel alone

But never fulfill my possibility

So mostly I attempt to achieve balance

By seeking right knowledge and loving and reviewing

And eventually over standing those many lessons of my life

You got me caught in a stormy eyed world that drains

And I beg to see truth and promises you made to me

Now we've come so far but my visions of happiness

With you in my life I'm afraid and confused

If I was a bird I'd fly

If I was a bird I'd fly away spread my wings so I'd escape

If I was the sky I'd let it rain to wash away the pain

If I was a bird I'd fly away spread my wings so I'd escape

If I was the sky I'd let it rain to wash away the pain

Now why do I feel so alone knowing I know I have you

And what made you turn around on me what did I do

And when did love feel this way so much pain and misery

Where's the you I once knew and could you fly with me

If I was a bird I'd fly away spread my wings so I'd escape

If I was the sky I'd let it rain to wash away the pain

If I was a bird I'd fly away spread my wings so I'd escape

If I was the sky I'd let it rain to wash away the pain

Now I can't stay you won't need me

Set me free and let me fly

Oh fly with me fly with me me

Fly with me yeah fly oh fly fly

If I was a bird I'd fly away spread my wings so I'd escape

If I was the sky I'd let it rain to wash away the pain

If I was a bird I'd fly away spread my wings so I'd escape

If I was the sky I'd let it rain to wash away the pain

Fly away

If I were the sky I'd let it rain to wash the pain

Fly away

If I were the sky I'd let it rain
