Flying High

I used to sit and sigh

Watching life pass me by

Unfit for the role I played

Unhappy with the words I’d say

I used to be a puppet on a string

Pulled into all sorts of crazy things

‘Til I walked right out of that frame

Stopped playing that losing game

Chorus:

Now I’m flying high

The view from here is open sky

My dreams have never been so wide

I’m…flying high

It’s not easy to let go

But if you don’t you’ll never know

All the things that might come to be

If you have the courage to be free

Take a look at that open view

Do what every bird learns to do

You got to leave that feathered nest

And put your wings to the test

Now I’m flying high

The view from here is open sky

My dreams have never been so wide

I’m flying high
