A piece of sky
It all began the day I found
That from my window
I could only see
A piece of sky
I stepped outside and looked around,
I never dreamed it was so wide
Or even half as high.
The time had come
(papa, can you see me?)
To try my wings
(can you understand me?)
And even thought it seemed at any moment I could fall,
I felt the most
(papa, can you see me?)
Amazing things,
(can you understand me?)
The things you cant imagine
If youve never flown at all.
Though its safer to stay on the ground,
Sometimes where danger lies
There the sweetest of pleasures are found
No matter where I go-
There'll be memories that tug at my sleeve
But there will also be
More to question yet more to believe.
(Oh tell me where-
Where is the someone who will turn to look at me
And want to share
My evry sweet-imagined possibility?)
The more I live - the more I learn.
The more I learn - the more I realize the less I know.
Each step I take-
(papa, I've a voice now!)
Each page I turn-
(papa, I've a choice now!)
Each mile I travel only means
The more I have to go.
What's wrong with wanting more?
If you can fly then soar!
With all there is why settle for just a piece of sky?
Papa, I can see you...
Papa, I can hear you...
Papa, I can feel you...
Papa, watch me fly!
