Well I started out down a dirty road

Started out all alone

And the sun went down, as I crossed the hill

And the town lit up, the world got still

I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings

Coming down is the hardest thing

Well the good ol' days, may not return

And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn

I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings

Coming down is the hardest thing

Well some say life will beat you down

Break your heart, steal your crown

So I've started out, for God knows where

I guess I'll know when I get there

I'm learning to fly, around the clouds

But what goes up must come down

I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings

Coming down is the hardest thing

I'm learning to fly, around the clouds

But what goes up must come down

I'm learning to fly

I'm learning to fly
