[00:00.12] Wade Bowen - To Live Is To Fly
[00:02.43] .
[00:05.42] .
[00:08.35] .
[00:30.52] Days up and down they come
[00:33.90] Like rain on a conga drum
[00:37.27] Forget most, remember some
[00:40.59] But don't turn none away
[00:44.60] Everything is not enough,
[00:48.01] And nothing is too much to bear
[00:51.69] Where you've been is good and gone
[00:54.32] All you keep is the getting there
[00:57.39] .
[00:57.82] Well, to live's to fly, both low and high
[01:05.07] So shake the dust off of your wings
[01:09.14] And the sleep out of your eyes
[01:11.39] .
[01:27.26] We all got holes to fill
[01:30.38] Them holes are all that's real
[01:33.39] Some fall on you like a storm
[01:36.57] Sometimes you dig your own
[01:41.20] The choice is yours to make
[01:44.57] The time is yours to take
[01:48.01] Some sail upon the sea
[01:50.64] Some toil upon the stone
[01:53.32] .
[01:54.20] Well, to live's to fly, both low and high
[02:01.63] Shake the dust off of your wings
[02:04.87] And the sleep out of your eyes
[02:08.19] .
[02:39.41] Goodbye to all my friends
[02:42.78] It's time to leave again
[02:46.28] Think of all the poetry
[02:48.97] And the pickin' down the line
[02:53.35] I'll miss the system here
[02:56.16] The bottom's low and the treble's clear
[02:59.79] But it don't pay to think too much
[03:03.16] On the things you leave behind
[03:06.35] .
[03:06.66] Well, to live's to fly, both low and high
[03:13.78] So shake the dust off of your wings
[03:17.22] And the sleep out of your eyes
[03:21.16] Shake the dust off of your wings
[03:24.41] And the tears out of your eyes
[03:27.22] .
[03:31.28] .
