Blue Rodeo - Flying lyrics

I'm not saying I'm angry now I'm just wondering why you changed your mind Happens all the time How does it feel to have a winning hand From a first-rate failure To the leader in the chosen land People never understand If the world keeps spinning 'round It'll be alright You said if you were on your own You could really fly Fly While you're up there Turn around and touch the sky I guess the point of getting out Is never saying goodbye You learn your lessons in the hardest times Run out of patience Lean on the bold faced lie People never wonder why I feel too tired to scream and shout Left in the sun 'til the colors all fade out If the world keeps spinning 'round It'll be alright You left us long ago So you could really fly
