Why Walk When You Can Fly?

Why Walk When You Can Fly? - Cuppatea

Written by：Mary Chapin Carpenter

In this world there's a whole lot of trouble baby

In this world there's a whole lot of pain

In this world there's a whole lot of trouble but

A whole lot of ground to gain

Why take when you could be giving

Why watch as the world goes by

It's a hard enough life to be living

Why walk when you can fly

In this world

There's a whole lot of trouble baby

In this world

There's a whole lot of pain

In this world

There's a whole lot of trouble but

A whole lot of ground to gain

Why take when you could be giving

Why watch as the world goes by

It's a hard enough life to be living

Why walk when you can fly

In this world

There's a whole lot of sorrow

In this world

There's a whole lot of shame

In this world

There's a whole lot of sorrow

And a whole

Lot of ground to gain

When you spend your whole life wishing

Wanting and wondering why

It's a long enough life to be living

Why walk when you can fly

And in this world

There's a whole lot of golden

In this world

There's a whole lot of plain

In this world

You've a soul for a compass

And a heart for a pair of wings

There's a star on the far horizon

Rising bright in an azure sky

For the rest

Of the time that you're given

Why walk

When you can

Fly
