    Like birds on a high line

    they line up at night time at the barThey all once were love birds

    now bluebirds are all that they are
    They landed in hell the minute they fell from love's sky
    And now they hope in the wine that they'll find a new way to fly
    A new way to fly far away from goodbye
    Above the clouds and the rain the mem'ries and the pain and the tears that they cry
    Now the lesson's been learned they've all crashed and burned
    But they can leave it behind if they could just find a new way to fly

    By the end of the night they'll be high as a kite once again
    And they don't seem to mind all the time or the money they spend
    It's a high price to pay to just find a way to get by
    But it's worth every night if they find a new way to fly
    A new way to fly...
    They'll leave it behind as soon as they find a new way to fly

    Its worth it for us to find a new way to fly.

    Nice poem. Yeah, it is definitely worth it. If you don't try, you'll never know if you can fly. If you set your dreams too low, you might reach them before you peak. Aim as high as you can imagine and then a little more. Even if you miss, you'll still be amazed at where you are.

    this reminds me of us, us ex-JW's.

    Did you write this, CG? I like it a lot.

    No. I didnt write that.

    Garth Brooks did.

    But I think it illustrates how we all XJW's have to find a new way to get by.
