Give Me Wings
Give me wings, give me wings,
let them carry me to where my eyes can see,
let me fly, oh let me fly,
so that I can really know that I am free.
When I climb the mountain, I can see so clearly,
everything is laid out far and wide;
but I live down in the valley, where it’s mighty hard to see
with the mountains looming up on every side….
Give me wings, give me wings,
let them carry me to where my eyes can see,
let me fly, oh let me fly,
so that I can really know that I am free.
When I find the answers, then I know the questions
everything is simple so it seems,
but I feel so very tiny in the midst of daily life
as I struggle with my hopes and fears and dreams…
Give me wings, give me wings,
let them carry me to where my eyes can see,
let me fly, oh let me fly,
so that I can really know that I am free.
When I feel the music, swelling up within me
bursting out into another song,
then I find myself distracted by a thousand other things,
and it’s difficult to let it flow along….
Give me wings, give me wings,
let them carry me to where my eyes can see,
let me fly, oh let me fly,
so that I can really know that I am free.
