Lyrics

READY TO FLY
Bauman/Riggan
Copyright 2001 Pleasant View Music

Can anyone make a wish?
For anything more than this?
Whatever my past might say
I?m seeing a bright new day
And what used to be
Is no longer haunting me
There?s nothing but clear blue sky
As far as the horizon line

I have always been so tightly wound
But lately I?m starting to come around

Now look at me
I?m spreading my wings
I?m ready to fly, ready to fly
Now look at me
I?m finally free
I?m ready to fly, ready to fly

Now I?m seeing through brand new eyes
And feeling my spirits rise
There?s nothing that I should fear
?Cause love has made it so near

Now I have felt the touch of your loving hand
The world may not be different, but I know I am

Now look at me
I?m spreading my wings
I?m ready to fly, ready to fly
Now look at me
I?m finally free
I?m ready to fly, ready to fly

The weight is lifted off my shoulders
I?m reaching for the sky
I?m ready to fly

Now this is the life that I have been waiting for
Love was out of my reach before you came to me
Now nothing can hold me down I can touch the sky
My heart made up mind now it?s clear to see, I am finally free

Now look at me
I?m spreading my wings
I?m ready to fly, ready to fly
Now look at me
I?m finally free
I?m ready to fly, ready to fly
