Mama, don't you cry
Don't you worry
I cannot stay here any longer
The time has come to find a distant calling
That only seems to get much stronger
And, I know it's hard
To see the one you come to lean on make his way
Far beyond the world but I can't stay
I won't stop running
I'm only getting closer
To getting off the ground this time
The sky is calling, the wind is at my shoulders
Won't let this chance pa** me by
Mama, I'm bent to fly
Remember yesterday
Before the storm
Before the innocence was lost
I promised I would stay forever more
But, every boy, in time moves on
Your wounds will heal someday
This I know, but I am restless and so torn
Mama, I can't stay here any more
I won't stop running
I'm only getting closer
To getting off the ground this time
The sky is calling, the wind is at my shoulders
Won't let this chance pa** me by
Mama, I'm bent to fly
I can feel it coming
A perfect storm is rising
Gotta say my last goodbye...
(Mama, I'm bent to fly...)
Mama, don't you cry
Don't you worry
I cannot stay here any longer
I won't stop running
I'm only getting closer
To getting off the ground this time
The sky is calling, the wind is at my shoulders
Won't let this chance pa** me by
Mama, I'm bent to fly, ohhhh
Mama, I'm bent to fly
Yeeeaah...
I can feel it coming
A perfect storm is rising
I gotta say my last goodbye...
