Fly, Fly Away
Why am I the one to suffer
Through all of this pain?
When will anything worth living
Ever come my way again?
As I lay in bed
Crying to the pillow
I know
I might see you again
But my hope has grown wings
And left me
Just Maybe
Today, I'll start brushin' the dust off
Today, I might start spreadin' my wings
Just maybe. Today
Will finally be the day
I'll see you face to face
And with God-given hope
I might just fly. Fly, fly away
Why does my focus
Tend to stray?
Why do I lose faith when
I need it to stay?
Why are my prayers
So empty?
As I sit at home
Trying to get my thoughts straight
I face my fears
And walk out that door.
But finally,
Today, I'll start brushin' the dust off
Today, I'll start spreadin' my wings
Because finally, today
Will finally be the day
I'll hear you clearly
And you'll give me hope
And I'll fly. Fly,fly, away
Troubles are just paperweights
In the way of keepin' my thoughts straight.
But now know in my heart
That this is only part
Of what's to come
And with faith, Today
I'll start brushin' the dust off
Today, I'll start spreadin' my wings
With hope. Today
Will finally be the day
God, you'll whisper in my ear
Its time to fly
Just fly, fly away
