I've been telling my dreams to the scarecrow

'bout the places that I'd like to see

I say friend do you think I'll ever get there,

Oh,but he just stands there smiling back at me

So I confessed my sins to the preacher

About the love I've been praying to find

Is there a brown eyed boy in my future? Ya

And he says girl you've got nothing but time

But how do you wait for heaven?

And who has that much time?

And how do you keep your feet on the ground?

When you know that were you were born

You were born to fly

My daddy he is grounded like the oak-tree

My mamma she is steady as the sun

Oh, you know I love my folks

But I keep staring down the road,

Just looking for my one chance to run

Hey, 'cause I will soar away like the blackbird

I will blow in the wind like a seed

I will plant my heart in the garden of my dreams

And I will grow up where I wander wild and free.

Ohhhhhh

How do you wait for heaven?

And who has that much time?

And how do you keep your feet on the ground?

When you know that you were born

You were born yeah.......

You were born to fly

(Instrumental Break)

So how do you wait for heaven?

And who has that much time?

And how do you keep your feet on the ground?

When you know that you were born, you were born

You were born to fly, fly, fly ,fly

Heyyyyy

Ooooooooo

(Instrumental)
