Well, I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up, and the world got still

I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
It's coming down, that's the hardest thing

Well, the good ol' days may not return
And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn

But I'm learning to fly
But I ain't got wings
Coming down
Is the hardest thing

Now some say life will beat you down
Break your heart, steal your crown
I've started out for God knows where
I guess I'll know when I get there

I'm learning to fly
Around the clouds
What goes up
Must come down

I'm learning to fly
But I ain't got wings
Coming down
Is the hardest thing
