Come Fly Away

Jimmie Dale Gilmore · Other Songs - Jimmie Dale Gilmore

I saw you yonder

Where soon the snows will cover

There, where the columbine will grow

Then I saw something



Makes me know

That I know nothing

While high upon a steady wing

The wild geese make their way



Amber, yellow fields

Topaz red and rust reveal

There's still something

You're yearning for



Seasons come, seasons go

Little one you know

Come here and take my hand

Help me understand



We're gonna fly away

We're gonna fly away

We'll fly and fly and fly and fly and fly

And maybe we'll find home



Winter's coming, thought's abiding

Like a fox

Where some moon's hiding

In the dark you see a distant glow



So you go on in your dreams

Where what it is is what it seems

While all along the source of spring

Is living in a song



We're gonna fly away

We're gonna fly away

We'll fly and fly and fly and fly and fly

Until we find our home



We're gonna fly away

We're gonna fly away

We'll fly and fly and fly and fly and fly

The earth is still our home
