|
In the middle of the meadow |
|
I sit staring at my kite |
|
A ball of string |
|
And a paper dream |
|
That I could not make fly |
|
Then Daddy |
|
Pulled it to the sky |
|
Behind him as he ran |
|
And said Girl don't be caught waiting on the wind |
|
The time comes |
|
When a young girl |
|
Wants to leave the nest and fly |
|
I sat there sad and proud and smiled through the tears |
|
And said goodbye |
|
I gave you boosts, |
|
I gave you wings |
|
And girl I understand |
|
An eagle can't sit waiting on the wind |
|
If you rise for every challenge |
|
If you run to catch your dreams |
|
That star that you keep reaching for |
|
Is closer than it seems |
|
Heaven & Earth reward all those who |
|
Try and try again |
|
And will not be caught waiting on the wind |
|
Whatever strength you find in me |
|
I thank my father for |
|
His wisdom |
|
Faith, and courage |
|
Set me on a steady course |
|
And when my sails are empty |
|
Their words lift me up again |
|
And I will not be caught waiting on the wind |
|
If you rise for every challenge |
|
If you run to catch your dreams |
|
That star you keep reaching for |
|
Is closer than it seems |
|
Storms of life may force you to change courses |
|
Now and then |
|
But Never be caught waiting on the wind |
|
Never be caught waiting on the wind |
|
Never be caught waiting on the wind |
