October afternoon alone, in pain, and scared
Walkin' on the fringe of a disease
She's been holdin' on for so very long
Resigning to the tune written in the wind
Before her song she drew a silent breath
Turning inward, almost deafening
The sound escapes her definition, I confess
Coming to a breathless reckoning
Like a chime in the wind she sings me a song
Keep the faith and you'll never walk alone
Beckoning, she's singin' a song
Lord, I hope she don't take too long
Lifetimes slip away sure as time goes by
Circumstance beyond my control
I took it too hard there was nothin' else I could say
She took it upon herself to say
"Like a bird on the wing, but I was strong
The winds of change won't steer you wrong"
Adrift and free, singin' a song
Lord, I hope she don't take too long
"By a twist of fate and a show of hands
For the grace of age and life's lost plans
There's nothing lost if there's nothing chanced
This bird in flight is free at last"
ย
I'm on my way to a different shade
Somewhere between pale love and blue
Written in a song is her torch that I hold
Like our birds that sing she often flew
She's the bird on the wing, volatile and free
Singin' with the changes in the wind
October breeze carries a song
Lord, I hope she don't take too long
It's a lesson to me, I should of known all along
Spread your love and you'll never walk alone
Written in the wind, this night carries a song
But Lord, I hope she don't take too long
She don't take too long
She don't take too long
