i'm gonna fly lyrics

All of my friends are happy to stay
Here in this yard day after day
But something inside me has called me away
I don't understand but I know I can't stay

I'm gonna fly, no one knows where
But I'm gonna fly, I'm lighter than air

'Cause I have felt for the first time, I can be myself
No more faces to hide behind
Just a smile and a dream that's mine
And even if I am the only one who wants to fly

I'm gonna fly, no one knows where
But I'm gonna fly, I soar through the air

'Cause all my life seems I've waited for the time to start
Being the person inside of me unafraid of being me
No more faces to hide behind
Just a smile and a dream that's mine
And even if I'm the only one who wants to fly

If I had my life to live over again
I'd run bare foot, relax a bit more
And I'd talk to more children
And I'd learn how they laugh
And I'd teach them how I've learned to fly

I'm gonna fly, no one knows where
But I'm gonna fly, I'm lighter than air
I'm gonna fly, no one knows where
But I'm gonna fly, I soar through the air

'Cause all my life seems I've waited for the time to start
Being this person inside of me unafraid of being me
Even if I'm the only one who wants to fly

I'm gonna fly
