- does anybody really know? -


learning to fly

learning to fly
without wings
playing on my own
heart strings
trusted another player
for a while
thinking of her makes it
hard to smile


for she got caught up
in the strings
then ran away
breaking the strings
and now I repair my heart
and play on
only some optimism
is gone


learning to fly
on my own
know I've always
been alone
trusted another to
share my heart
feeling now tends to just
tear me apart


for she took everything
and ran away
it just got too much
for her one day
and now I do my best
to pay the cost
only some hope and faith
is lost


I truly believed
in the words she said
the promises she made
while in my bed
the hope and the faith
she placed in my head
it still lives and breathes
but it feels so dead


she wouldn't live up
to her intentions
pretending she couldn't get past apprehensions
she just did not want
to commit to love
she's not sure of
the dreams she dreams of
so I am learning to fly
from a fall
even though the ground
does call
I am not ready to
give up just yet
life has much more to offer
than regret


and she shall not destroy me
with her games
I will leave behind the
fears and blames
and now I do what
I must do for me
with just a little less
fantasy


learning to fly
out on my own
knowing I've always
been alone
believing I will share
love someday
taking care of myself
along the way

learning to fly
without wings
learning to play
on my own heart strings
learning to forgive
and learning to learn
taking my time to take my turn
learning that what we have in our hearts
is only what we earn
learning how to keep warm
and how not to burn

learning to fly, without wings
learning' how to play on my own heart strings
learning to forgive and not forget
learning how to live and not regret
learning I've not learned it all just yet

learning to fly, without wings
learning to play, on my own heart strings
learning to forgive and learning to learn
taking my time to take my turn
learning how to keep warm
and how not to burn
learning that what we have in our hearts
is only what we earn
