Carolyn Wonderland - Victory of Flying mp3 download

Lyrics

When I was younger I had a great hunger
Desire that yet had no name
Then I grew wings, left the branch and felt the sting
I found the nest and the ground aren’t the same
I kept my head low, tried to walk with the crows
While they cut my head and took all my scratch
It no longer burdened me, thieves they had set me free
I needed lightness to stay on my path
I need lightness to stay on my path
CH:
An open wing always gathers more wind and rain
But can you live without fear of dying?
The price I’ve paid, and all the beds I’ve made
Were worth it all for the victory of flying
There was mud all around, covering all that I’ve found,
Mostly trash that was once someone’s treasure
I built a home. When it rained it was gone
So I stretched my wings for good measure.
The pull of the sky had me dream I could fly
I would watch and learn, but I couldn’t wait
So I did my part, took a running start
And dove head first into my fate
I dove head first into my fate.
Lord, help a girl who can’t wait
(CH)
