lyrics

Find Your Path
--------------------
Come, my old friend,
Rest yourself a while
Talk away the miles that lie between us
That we contend

Come, my old friend,
Drink to our regrets,
Secrets and success
Keep this forget-me-not
Until the end
Come, my old friend.

What do you see?
Look into the glass
At the years that line your past
And in the emptiness
Are you complete?

Was there a love?
A ghost written in song
What boat did he sail on?
And is there anyone that gives you peace
Since he's been gone?

And if you’re tallying the cost,
Of every love that I have lost,
I didn't mean to let things lie
I didn't mean to make them cry
Oh no, no, no...
And every compromise was blessed,
Each obligation of my chest,
I always let things lie
I didn't mean to make them cry
Oh no, no, no,

Come little bird
Stretch your wings and fly
There's a wide and open sky
That lies ahead of you
If you would try

So have no fear
You will take to wing
And you will learn to sing
You'll find your resting place
Many miles from here
So have no fear.

And may you always find your path
And may you find a love that lasts
And never let things lie
And may you never cry
Oh no, no, no....
And may all compromise be damned
Until the world lies in your hands
And may you always fly
And may you never cry
Oh no, no, no
