I've been tellin' my dreams to the scarecrow |
|
About the places that I'd like to see |
|
I say, "Friend do you think I'll ever get there?" |
|
Oh, but he just stands there smilin' back at me |
|
So I confess my sins to the preacher |
|
About the love I'd been prayin' to find |
|
Is there a brown-eyed boy in my future? |
|
And he says, "Girl, you've got nothin' but time" |
|
But how do you wait for Heaven? |
|
And who has that much time? |
|
And how do you keep your feet on the ground? |
|
When you know that you were born, you were born to fly |
|
My daddy, he is grounded like the oak tree |
|
My momma, she is as steady as the sun |
|
Oh you know I love my folks, but I keep starin' down the road |
|
Just lookin' for my one chance to run |
|
Hey 'cause I will soar away like the blackbird |
|
I will blow in the wind like a seed |
|
I will plant my heart in the garden of my dreams |
|
And I will grow up where I want, wild and free |
|
Oh how do you wait for Heaven? |
|
And who has that much time? |
|
And how do you keep your feet on the ground? |
|
When you know that you were born, you were born, yeah |
|
You were born to fly |
|
So how do you wait for Heaven? |
|
And who has that much time? |
|
And how do you keep your feet on the ground? |
|
When you know that you were born, you were born to fly, yeah |
|
You were born to fly, fly, fly, fly, hey |
