i’ve been tellin’ my dreams to the scarecrow
about the places that i’d like to see
i said friend do you think i’ll ever get there
oh but he just stands there smilin’ back at me
so i confessed my sins to the preacher
about the love i’ve been prayin’ to find
is there a brown eyed boy in my future yeah
an’ he says girl you’ve got nothin’ 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 you were born
you were born to fly
my daddy he is grounded like the oak tree
my momma she is steady as the sun
oh you know i love my folks but i keep starin’ down the road
just lookin’ 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’ll wandered wild and free
oh 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
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 to fly
yeah
you were born to fly fly fly fly
hey
ooooh ooooh
