Took me about 3 months to master.

So far, and away, see the bird as it flies by
Gliding through the shadows of the clouds up in the sky.
I've laid all my memories and dreams upon those wings,
Leave them now, and see what, tomorrow brings.

Do you remember loving me?
Was it fate, that brought us close,
And now leaves, me behind?

That's it. There's more to it, but I've been unable to transfer it onto guitar yet, but
keep trying. Email me if there are any problems with this tab.
