|
There must be a thousand ways |
|
Holding us within this maze |
|
Every path we take leads us astray |
|
Comfort me my only son |
|
Till the day my work is done |
|
There's no earthly reason we should stay |
|
And when the wind gets under these wings |
|
You will feel what freedom brings |
|
Stay right by me, walk don't run |
|
I don't want you flying too close to the sun |
|
Turn your eyes towards the light |
|
Steal away in silent flight |
|
The skies are calling out to you and me |
|
Over sea and over land |
|
God protect us with your hand |
|
Bring us safely to our destiny |
|
And now the wind is under our wings |
|
We can taste what freedom brings |
|
Stay right by me, walk don't run |
|
I don't want you flying too close to the sun |
|
God forgive his fall from grace |
|
The sea conceals his resting place |
|
Can we learn to stay behind the line |
|
If we have the means to fly |
|
Some of us will surely die |
|
Being reckless was his only crime |
|
And now the wind is under our wings |
|
We can taste what freedom brings |
|
Stay right by me, walk don't run |
|
I don't want you flying too close to the sun |
