In the middle of the meadow
|
I sit staring at my kite
|
A ball of string
|
And a paper dream
|
That I could not make fly
|
Then Daddy Pulled it to the sky
|
Behind him as he ran
|
And said
|
Girl don't be caught waiting on the wind
|
|
The time comes
|
When a young girl
|
Wants to leave the nest and fly
|
I sat there sad and proud and smiled through the tears
|
And said goodbye
|
I gave you boosts, I gave you wings
|
And girl I understand
|
An eagle can't sit waiting on the wind
|
|
If you rise for every challenge
|
If you run to catch your dreams
|
That star that you keep reaching for
|
Is closer than it seems
|
Heaven & Earth reward all those who
|
Try and try again
|
And will not be caught waiting on the wind
|
|
Whatever strength you find in me
|
I thank my father for
|
His wisdom
|
Faith, and courage
|
Set me on a steady course
|
And when my sails are empty
|
Their words lift me up again
|
And I will not be caught waiting on the wind
|
|
If you rise for every challenge
|
If you run to catch your dreams
|
That star you keep reaching for
|
Is closer than it seems
|
Storms of life may force you to change courses
|
Now and then
|
But Never be caught waiting on the wind
|
Never be caught waiting on the wind
|
Never be caught waiting on the wind
|
