I wear a coat of colours, many in its fold
I travel countless lands, their treasures I behold
I talk to strangers in a language they adore
I carry fortunes that I lay upon their door
When you need someone
When you have someone
When you leave someone
When you know someone
You’re only learning to let go
The painful silence is much more than I can take
The tortured soul within is shown upon your face
The air of tension is oppressive and unreal
The haunted features tell a tale you won’t reveal
When you love someone
When you need someone
When you have someone
When you know someone
You’re only learning to let go
Dance now with clogs upon my brow
When tomorrow comes you will see the past
Buried deep beneath the plough
Whenever birds fly south for wintertime
Then you will only find
Your summer’s here once more
Freedom floats on a thermal soaring skyward
Weightless then liberty will lead us onward
When you love someone
When you need someone
When you have someone
When you know someone
You’re only learning to let go
Sing now hold peace within your heart
When tomorrow comes you will see the truth
Buried deep within the earth
When birds fly home again from summertime
Then they will ever find
A nest is built on straw
Freedom floats on a thermal soaring skyward
Weightless as liberty will lead us onward
When you love someone
When you need someone
When you have someone
When you know someone
You’re only learning to let go
