Flying Free

There is a place I call my own

Where I can stand by the sea

And look beyond the things I've known

And dream that I might be free

Like the bird above the trees

Gliding gently on the breeze

I wish that all my life I'd be

Without a care and flying free!

But life is not a distant sky

Without a cloud, without rain

And I can never hope that I

Can travel on without pain

Time goes swiftly on its way

All too soon we've lost today

I cannot wait for skies of blue

Or dream so long that life is through

So life's a song that I must sing

A gift of love I mushare

And when I see the joy it brings

My spirits soar through the air

Like that bird up in the sky

Life has taught me how to fly

For now I know what I can be and now my heart is fly ing free
