I was a boy looking to the sky
Watching airplanes as they float away (float away)
Wanted to see from the pilot's eye
Waiting and dreaming of the day (of the day)
But I was struck by blurry fate
Thought I never would touch the clouds (touch the clouds)
Can't let this pessimism permeate
Hang tight baby we're going down (going down)
I felt the weight of broken dreams but let gravity take it all
I'll learn to fly in the fall
I'm gonna take that jump, gonna take that leap
Embrace the unknown
I'm gonna forge my way, yeah, you'll see someday
I'll make a path of my own
I'm gonna take that plunge, gonna take that dive
I'll race the wind, show 'em all
I'm gonna forge my way, yeah, you'll see someday
I'll learn to fly in the fall
In the silence I would hear the call
It's just a whisper, a gentle sound (gentle sound)
With clipped wings I'd doubt I'd fly at all
Although inside me hope can be found (it can be found)
Hey, can't let misfortune run amok
How long was I held to the ground (to the ground)
If the world says that you can't go up
Hang tight baby we're going down (going down)
I felt the weight of broken dreams but let gravity take it all
I'll learn to fly in the fall
I'm gonna take that jump, gonna take that leap
Embrace the unknown
I'm gonna forge my way, yeah, you'll see someday
I'll make a path of my own
I'm gonna take that plunge, gonna take that dive
I'll race the wind, show 'em all
I'm gonna forge my way, yeah, you'll see someday
I'll learn to fly in the fall
My head was always in the clouds
This is where I feel free
When I face the winds of doubt
I know where I'm meant to be
My head was always in the clouds
This is where I feel free
When I face the winds of doubt
I know where I'm meant to be
(3, 2, 1, oh shit. Here we go)
I'm gonna take that jump, gonna take that leap
Embrace the unknown
I'm gonna forge my way, yeah, you'll see someday
I'll make a path of my own
I'm gonna take that plunge, gonna take that dive
I'll race the wind, show 'em all
I'm gonna forge my way, yeah, you'll see someday
I'll learn to fly in the fall
I'm gonna take that jump, gonna take that leap
Embrace the unknown
I'm gonna forge my way, yeah, you'll see someday
I'll make a path of my own
I'm gonna take that plunge, gonna take that dive
I'll race the wind, show 'em all
I'm gonna forge my way, yeah, you'll see someday
I'll learn to fly in the fall
(It's okay, it's okay. Just close your eyes, jump, and always wear your brown pants just in case)
