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 (Oh 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 anymore 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) Oh 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, oh But mama, I'm bent to fly, yeah, hey, hey, yeah! I can feel it coming A perfect storm is rising I gotta say my last goodbye
