FLying Free

its a song i heard last nite..

remembering all the past in life,

about love and pain, and walk to the future,

being a gift of joy....

There is a place I call my own

where I can stand by the sea,

and look beyond the things I've known,

and dream that Ii might be free

Like the bird above the trees

gliding gently on the breeze,

I wish that all my life I'd be

without a care, and flying free!

But life is not a distant sky

without a cloud, without rain

and I can never hope

that I can travel on without pain.

Time goes swiftly on its way

All too soon we've lost to way

All too soon we've lost to day

I can not wait skies of blue

or dream so long that life is through.

So life's a song that i must sing,

a gift of love I must share

And when I see the joy it brings

my spirit soar to the air

Like that bird up in the sky,

life has taught me how to fly

For now I know what I can be

and now my heart is flying Free!
