Learning To Fly

Everywhere I go these days I get a little left behind

It's not like it was back in my day where is the end of the line

Everything that I believed has suddenly turned into lies

It's time to look at life through a new set of eyes

It's all about learning to fly

Life isn't always easy or fair we play the cards we get

Some are born with a silver spoon others play the teachers pet

I was surrounded by beggars and fools

So I thought my oceans were dry

Now I'm living on faith and I'm learning to never say die

And now I'm really learning to fly

I'm learning to fly

I've never been this high

I'm takin' it slow 'cos I know it can change

In the blink of an eye

And finally I'm learning to fly

In generations long since past people went without

And everything was built to last and now they just throw it out

I try to rise above it all it's only one piece of the pie

And like a bird in the nest I know I belong in the sky

And now I'm really learning to fly

I got my wings now I'm in heaven

And I know this is not the end

'Cos I'm learning to fly I've never been this high

I'm takin' it slow 'cos I know it can change

In the blink of an eye

And finally I'm learning to fly

Mmm I'm learning to fly

And I stop asking why

Yeah I'm learning to fly
