Why don’t you fly
Free your mind
To all this splendour
Why don’t you fly
To the arms
That save
All this doubt
Trying to work it out
Could you lay it down
For now
It’s good to think
But it’s good to drink
From this living stream
So why
You can come
While your heart feel numb
You could just lie down
And rest
Or lift your eyes
To the open sky
We could come alive
And fly
