Paula Cole Flying Home Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Never, never, never giving up the ghost
The spirit living, breathing oxygen and hope
Like gravity's magnet delivering us to something we can't see
A silent connection to the poets' and the seekers' destinies

[Refrain]
And when the storm clouds are teaching us the lessons from the tomb
To see ourselves in the mirror resurrecting in our truth

[Chorus]
We're flying home
We're flying homе
[Verse 2]
Patience, patiencе, patience bearing into fruit
Wisdom and counsel and letting go the hubris of our youth
Surrender ego, celebrating later years of age
Loosening white-knuckled terror in the fallen dreams we laid

[Refrain]
And when the storm clouds are teaching us the lessons from the tomb To see ourselves in the mirror resurrecting in our truth

[Chorus]
We're flying home
We're flying home

[Verse 3]
Quiet, quiet, quiet is the gait of the beloved
Ignoring the vexations and the charlatans and noises all among us
Give forth your gift while listening in innocence and awe
However God may reveal Her secret shadow self to us

[Refrain]
And when the storm clouds are teaching us the lessons from the tomb
To see ourselves in the mirror resurrecting in our truth

[Chorus]
We're flying home
We're flying home
We're flying home
We're flying home
Home
Home
