Walking down a one-way street
Watching what reality has done to all my dreams
It has become clearer to see
Things are not the way they used to seem
Feeling like a man without a name
Up 'til now, I was simply playing with the game
But time has declared I can't remain
And whatever road I take, I'll never be the same
Chorus:
To live in the sky, if only somehow
To be in the right, I don't know how
But to just turn aside, I can't go now
Oh, to live in the sky
In a world of black and white
We just try to get it right
It's the story of our lives, I am afraid
Now walking down that road, I think I see
That there is a future that's awaiting you and me
And although you may be right that I'm naive
I'd rather be a fool than not believe
For although this road will have its share of pain
And although we are the choices that we make along the way
The direction of that road remains the same
As high as we can say, as high as we can pray
Chorus:
Come let us fly, we can make it
Climb ever-high, overtake it
Shouldn't we try, don't forsake it
Oh, to live in the sky
