Analysis of Once More We Can Fly
Once the trial is over. Once the sweat is dry.
Life returns to normal. Once more we can fly.
Once the grief is over. Once the ache is gone.
Life returns to normal. Once more we can fawn.
Once the rage is over. Once the flame is low.
Life returns to normal. Once more we can glow.
Once the storm is over. Once the gale is past.
Life returns to normal. Once more we can blast.
Once the clash is over. Once the war is won.
Life returns to normal. Once more we can fun.
Once the angst is over. Once the fret is spent.
Life returns to normal. Once more we can vent.
Once the vogue is over. Once the haute is in.
Life returns to normal. Once more we can grin.
