Jars of Clay

Fly Farther

He picked her up some flowers

On a sunday afternoon

They sat out on the porch swing

Underneath the cresent moon

A life timeseemed to pass

Staring at the skies

And on the swing he gave her the ring

There were tears in her eyes

He said I pray I'm not alone

In my dreams about forever

That you and I could become one

And always be together

We'd grow old and wise

Through all the days

For worse or for better

And now be true inside of you

Even now more than ever

And my lifetime flies but we'll fly farther

Into the night where the eyes of loneliness can never bother

All our dreams of together uneclipsed by never never

And my time flies it's in your eyes, but we'll fly farther

Fifty years have ridden off into the sunset

And the tears that we have cried have overflown

Here we are counting scars, wounds of life's ending upset

You're with me and I with you and I will never forget

And my time flies but we'll fly farther

Into the night where the eyes of loneliness will never bother

All our dreams of together uneclipsed by never never

And mytime flies it's in your eyes, but we'll fly farther

He picked her up some flowers

On a sunday acfternoon

He rode the Greyhound bus past the house they used to swoon

He knelt beside the grave, hung his head, a teardrop fell

And on the stone epitaph show the words he knew so well...

And my time flies but we'll fly farther

Into the night where the eyes of loneliness will never bother

All our dreams of together uneclipsed by never never

And my time finds it's in your eyes, but we'll fly farther

And my timeflies but we'll fly farther

Into the night where the eyes of loneliness will never bother

All our dreams of together, uneclipsed by never never

And my time finds it's in your eyes, but we'll fly farther

We'll fly farther

We'll fly farther
