A PIECE OF SKY
It all began, the day I found
That from my window I could only see a piece of sky
I stepped outside, and looked around
I never dreamed it was so wide or even half as high
The time had come to try my wings
And even though I knew at any moment I could fall
I felt the most amazing things
The things you can't imagine if you've never flown at all

Though it's safer to stay on the ground
Sometimes where danger lies,
There the sweetest of pleasures are found
No matter where I go
There'll be memories that tug at my sleeve
But there will also be
More to question, yet more to believe

Oh tell me where,
Where is the someone who will turn to look at me
And want to share
My every sweet imagined possibility.

The more I live, the more I learn
The more I learn, the more I realize the less I know
Each step I take, each page I turn
Each mile I travel only means the more I have to go
What's wrong with wanting more? If you can fly, then soar!
With all there is, why settle for
Just a piece of sky.

Papa I can hear you, papa I can see you
Papa I can feel you, Papa watch me fly!
