Written by Mark Taylor, Nelly Furtado, Paul Barry
Mother, just lay your head down You've been burning both ends of the candle and you're done It's time to find your wings again and turn your face towards the sun Some battles can't be won
Like a phoenix Rising from the ashes Like a phoenix Rising from the flame You're gonna be alright You're gonna be alright You're gonna be alright again
Oh brother, your hands are tired You've been holding the world up and you're losing your grip If you knew now what you knew then, maybe you'd be whole again But everyone falls down
Like a phoenix Rising from the ashes Like a phoenix Rising from the flame You're gonna be alright You're gonna be alright You're gonna be alright again
You built a castle in the clouds But then the fire burned it down You're still standing anyway All you needed from the start Was waiting there inside your heart To be born again
Like a phoenix Like a phoenix You're gonna be alright You're gonna be alright You're gonna be alright again You're gonna be alright You're gonna be alright You're gonna be alright again
