Learning To Fly

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.

We used to be able to dance on the table

With nothing but stars in our eyes

Where we'd make believe and with all of our dreams

We would color outside of the lines

Don't you ever wonder when it happened

How did fun turn into fear?

Now I'm standing on the edge of now or never

And the skies are looking clear, oh

Oh-ma-ma-eh-ah-ma

Oh-ma-ma-eh-ah-ma

I'm still learning to, I'm still learning to

Oh-ma-ma-eh-ah-ma

Oh-ma-ma-еh-ah-ma

I'm still learning to, I'm still learning to fly

I'm still learning to, I'm still lеarning to fly

I'm still learning to fly, learning to

Hide in tall buildings, to seek all the millions

And hang like the suits and the ties

But that voice deep inside us is tryin'

To remind us what it means to be alive

Well don't you feel we're running in circles

How did days turn to years?

Now I'm standing on the edge of now or never

And the skies are looking clear

Oh-ma-ma-eh-ah-ma

Oh-ma-ma-eh-ah-ma

Oh-ma-ma-eh-ah-ma

Oh-ma-ma-eh-ah-ma

I'm still learning to, I'm still learning to fly

I'm still learning to, I'm still learning to fly

I'm still learning to fly, we're learning to fly

Oh, yeah

Oh, yeah

Oh, yeah

Oh, ah

Over and over, I keep getting closer, closer to touching the sky

Going higher and higher, I see the horizon

Now I know how to, now I know how to fly

Now I know how to, now I know how to fly

Now I know how to, yeah, I know how to fly

Now I know how to, now I know how to fly

Now I know how to, now I know how to fly

Oh, yeah

Oh, yeah

Oh, ah

Oh, yeah
