Afraid to Fly

What would you pay for the chance to go back
Take the chance you passed up all those years ago
The pain in your face shows that you failed to chase your dreams
That you let them go

But I won't be the one to leave my dreams behind
Just call it a gift to my future peace of mind

You seem to feel that you've earned the right
To say you could've done this and would've done that
I rather think that you came to brink
Afraid to fly, you just turned back

But I will be the one to leap into the unknown
The only way you find out if my wings have grown

Come with me let's see if I can fly
Might just be the first an the last time I try
I can't go on knowing that I might've seen the sky
But I must be both you and I
You and I

This is the choice from which you cannot hide
Choose how you'll live for the rest of your life
The hardest choice to make is the one that's right

Never assume that you're all alone
To everyone this path has been shown

I won't be the one to leave my dreams behind
Just call it a gift to my future peace of mind

(Repeat first chorus)

I can't believe that you're asking me why
Live with endless regret, or take our chance to fly
Alone I'll be falling from the sky
You know it must be both you and I
You and I
