You almost tied me down good
Once I was a man alone
You played the lady in waiting
I guess that I never will
No more sorrow
I have cried too
Heart to call my home
Like a Phoenix
I have risen from the flames
I have cried too
Like a Phoenix
I have cried too long
You almost had me, old lady
No more sorrow
No more living
Now I've found a
I have cried too
Someone else's dreams
Got to carry on
Never thought I'd
Someone else's dreams
See the sun again
I have cried too long
Before I'd even learned to swim
I have cried too
No more sorrow
Once I was a
I never knew what you wanted
I have cried too long
Like a Phoenix
Once I was a
I have cried too long
Like a Phoenix
I have cried too
I have cried too long
No more living
Once I was a man alone
I have risen from the flames
Got to carry on
Too long, the songs have been silent
And I waited as long as I could
Too long, the strings have been still
I have risen from the flames
I have risen from the flames
Before I'd even learned to swim
Found deep water
Found deep water
