A Sparrow in a Hurricane

A Sparrow in a Hurricane

I’ve been caught up like a sparrow in a hurricane

Trying to find my wings

Falling through air, unable to breathe

from the pain losing you could bring.

But this sparrow’s finding a sandy beach

Build a nest in the warmth of the sun.

Go on living while the living’s good,

instead of trying to rebuild the undone.

I’m gonna point my face t’wards tomorrow

And leave the pain of the past all behind.

This sparrow’s gonna find her a sandy beach,

if it’s only in my mind.

Chorus:

I’m gonna fly, feel the wind beneath my wings

I’m gonna try, to find what life without you brings

I’m gonna dance, ‘til I no longer hear the song

I’m gonna heal what’s been broken for so long.

I’m gonna fly, gonna feel, gonna dance, gonna heal

Gonna leave all the pain behind.

This sparrow’s gonna learn how to soar again;

If it’s only in my mind.

Outcro:

The dreams, you and I once called our own

Now are mine, to dream them all alone

Think of me… every now and then

I’ll think of you and love you once again.

But

Chorus:

I’m gonna fly, feel the wind beneath my wings.

I’m gonna try, to find what life without you brings.

I’m gonna dance, ‘til I no longer hear the song.

I’m gonna heal what’s been broken for so long.

I’m gonna fly, gonna feel, gonna dance, gonna heal

Gonna leave all the pain behind.

This sparrow’s gonna learn how to soar again;

If it’s only in my mind.
