Looking at the ground I'm crying for the sky I know I can't hope to go where I can't be found But when I close my eyes I start to fly The sun burns down on me I'm praying he'll take me away So very much higher than the peaks above me I open myself, my spirit is free and I start to fly As a leaf upon the breeze Higher than the chains of mortal man Surrounded by the wonders of a life I saw but never knew Revealed the hazy secrets of the mountain man Yet soon as I am here I have to go The sun burns down on me I'm praying he'll take me away So very much higher than the peaks above me I open myself, my spirit is free and I start to fly Don't you know, don't you know that I can fly? Don't you know, don't you know that I can fly? Don't you know? (repeat to fade)
