The day I knew I was old enough to fly / I left the nest and hit that open sky
I spread my wings so far and wide / I could touch the horizon on both sides
I turned my head, smiled, and said goodbye
I've never felt so aimless and free / I had no plan, that was alright by me
Just ride the wind, it was cool / everything looked brand new
Clear blue skies as far as I could see
I made a lot of friends along the ride / some still fly, others never try
To the ones on the ground I wish you well / I've missed you since the day you fell
I'll see you in that sweet by and by
I pray I always float above the trees / soaring high searching for my dreams
I know some day I'll have to land / when I do I hope it's in sand
I'll rest there until the day I die
Then I'll fly, fly, and fly………
