Fly On

In Ontario's north, a wild eagle flies
As the wind through the trees brings the rain through the skies
And the wide empty road mocks with silence and calm
As we wait for a ride to carry us along
So fly on, fly on, fly on little bird
Fly away so far
Bring us back a car
Find us a ride from this wet, dreary place
And onward we'll race
There's a green little roof for shelter from the storm
There's a calm little lake with waters clear and warm
But the ground's wet and cold and we've been here for a day
I think it's high time for us to head away
So fly on, fly on, fly on little bird
Fly away so far
Bring us back a car
Find us a ride from this wet, dreary place
And onward we'll race
Well the bugs like to bite and the bugs like to swarm
When it's damp it's too cold, when it's not it's too warm
But as we drive away and the shield fades behind
Good outweighs the bad and I didn't really mind
So fly on, fly on, fly on little bird
Fly away so fast
We're leaving here at last
You found us a ride through this beautiful place
So onward we'll race

Turning of the Tide
03:02
|

|
Crouching down by the fireside we fan an embered spark
Finding leaves as I try to hide the firelight from my heart
Now the winter winds have blown, the ashes scattered wide,
Still somehow I've found myself smiling by your side.
(Chorus)
So let us run side by side
To the turning of the tide,
Past the edge of the sea
Where it's only you and me,
Through the wind and the storm
We will keep each other warm,
And when we seek to land,
I will smile and hold your hand,
Hold your hand.
Walking now through a winter night our laughter fogs the air
Sharing dreams of a future bright and all adventure there
Distance shrinks to nothing and my hope shines through my fear
'Cause the world's a bit more brilliant wandering with you near.
(Chorus)
And I won't wait for the spring to come
For life to fill the air
I won't wait for luck to change its mind
Now's the time for risking all to see what's hidden there
And I look at you and know that risk's worth what I might find
Sitting now on the path to sleep, a cat between our hands
Moment filled with a peace to keep as silence fills the lands
Sitting here beside you and the world is in your smile
And I know if we're together, there's joy in every mile.
(Chorus x2)
