When I Find My Life

from Blazing Away

  1. When I Find My Life

(Marianne Faithfull/Barry Reynolds)

Oh, I will free the bird in me
Oh, when I find my life.
What I always knew could be
Oh, when I find my life.
I will see the truth in me
Oh, when I find my life.
Oh, when I find my life.

I will let go the pain
Oh, when I find my life.
I will reach beyond the strain
Oh, when I find my life.
Fear of lost and fear of pain
Oh, when I find my life.
Oh, when I find my life.

I remember all the games of shame
And all the lies you told me.
I have worked so hard to learn
And flunked so far in my attempts to let it go by, dear.

And it’s so easy
I just opened my eyes.
And it’s so hard
To let go.

Oh, I will free the bird in me
Oh, when I find my life.
I will be what I wanna be
Oh, when I find my life.
I am here and I am free.
Oh, when I find my life.

Oh, when I find my life.
Oh, when I find my life.
Oh, when I find my life
