Lyrics
VERSE:
Will I ever learn to fear not
how I feel?
To speak outloud, and pull back the curtain,
to see what's real.
Will I ever learn to fear not
all the pain I feel?
To see through all the clouds and know
the sun is near.
CHORUS:
Oh say can you see
what's happening to me?
Please let me learn from my
fading history.
To follow the courses
of wild runnin' horses,
and lessons revealed from the
tree...can you see?
VERSE:
Will I ever know why
the love I always show,
seems to share the fate of a feather
in a wind that doesn't blow?
Will I ever find the one
who walks with me under the sun?
Who sees through all my disguises,
and thinks that its quite fun.
CHORUS:
Oh say can you see
what's happening to me?
Please let me learn from my
fading history.
To follow the courses
of wild runnin' horses,
and lessons revealed from the
tree...can you see?
BRIDGE:
Well if I lie above the sky,
I'd feel the sacred tones.
Of all the voices crying out,
I'd know I'm not alone.
VERSE:
Will I ever learn to trust
the choices that I made?
To follow my heart, and play my part,
and join this masquerade...
CHORUS:
Oh say can you see
what's happening to me?
Please let me learn from my
fading history.
To follow the courses
of wild runnin' horses,
and lessons revealed from the
tree...can you see?
END.
