There you stood on the edge of your feather Expecting to fly While I laughed, I wondered whether I could wave goodbye Knowing that you'd gone By the summer it was healing We had said goodbye All the years we'd spent with feeling Ended with a cry, babe Ended with a cry, babe Ended with a cry I tried so hard to stand As I stumbled and fell to the ground So hard to laugh as I fumbled And reached for the love I'd found Knowing it was gone If I ever lived without you Now you know I died If I ever said I loved you Now you know I tried, babe Now you know I tried, babe Now you know I tried, babe
