Lyrics
take me pretty mama, i'm ready to run with you on the long haul
soar with me & be my other, on the wing together we could never stall
i'll stake that claim & notch those logs-you've become my deepest roots
every nite @ that doorstep, forever smile & curse my muddy boots
some may tell us which way our life should go
but no-one will dictate what our children must know
your not my 1st-prayin you'll be my last, knowing you is growing love
let's lock our talons & freefall, catch an updraft & rise high above...
