The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He dreamed of higher ceilings
They tried to ground his feeling
But there’s a higher place to go
Some try to stop and fake it
But fate is what we make it
The height, the fall the risk he will take
He will take
He will take
I could show you the world he cried
Pick me up, pick me up, pick him up and I’ll fly
I could show you the world from high
Cos I’m the boy that wants to fly
You can’t control what you don’t know
You can’t control what you don’t know
Their telling him to go slow
Back up from the window
You can see that its a long way down
But he wears a cape with knowing
The hunger spark is glowing
His vision of the flight will grow
It will grow
It will grow
I could show you the world he cried
Pick me up pick me up pick him up and I’ll fly
I could show you the world from high
Cos I’m the boy who wants to fly
He said nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
He said
I could show you the world he cried,
Cos I’m that boy that wants to fly.
I could show you the world he cried,
Cos I’m the boy that wants to fly
I could show you the world he cried
Pick me up pick me up pick him up and I’ll fly
I could show you the world from high
Cos I’m the boy that wants to fly
