I've been telling 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 smiling back at me

So I confessed my sins to the preacher

about the love I've been praying to find

Is there a brown eyed boy in my future Yeah

And he says Girl you've got nothing 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's grounded like the oak tree

My momma she is steady as the sun

Oh you know I love my folks

but I keep staring down the road

Just looking 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 wander 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 Ooh -hooh
