Wings

Cool air when the wind blows
A Ray of light
And birds sing out by the window
The last sunrise in peace and quiet
I’ll remember everything
Lessons you don’t know you taught me
The memories are bittersweet

And I’ll miss seeing you smile
But I know that you are

Now you can swim in the ocean
And run in the wind
Look down upon us
And see what you did
And as you follow the others
We’ll keep you within
I know you’re flying high
‘Cause you got your wings
You got your wings

Think back on the good times
I close my eyes and see us walking under blue skies
The simple things they felt so nice
Like doing your nails and your hair
Over coffee listen to Elvis and then
Laugh about nothing
Wish we could do it again

And I’ll miss seeing you smile
But I know that you are

Now you can swim in the ocean
And run in the wind
Look down upon us and see what you did
And as you follow the others
We’ll keep you within
I know you’re flying high
Cause you got your wings
You got your wings

No longer broken
Nothing to fear
Out in the open
Leaving us here
Now the rest of your journey
Is about to begin
I know you’re flying high
I know you’re flying high
I know you’re flying high
Cause you got your wings
