The hour is early
|
The whole world is quiet
|
A beautiful morning's about to ignite
|
I'm ready for danger
|
I'm ready for fire
|
I'm ready for something to lift me up higher
|
|
Life's been good, I guess
|
My ragged old heart's been blessed
|
With so much more than meets the eye
|
I've got a past I won't soon forget
|
You ain't seen nothing yet
|
I'm still learning how to fly
|
|
It's the dreams that die hard
|
With old habits to break
|
You can't let down your guard
|
When there's so much at stake
|
I'm halfway to heaven, halfway to hell
|
But I might roll a seven
|
You never can tell
|
|
Life's been good it's true
|
When I'm feeling just like new
|
The same old rules need not apply
|
I've got a past full of sticks and stones
|
And a good feeling in my bones
|
I'm still learning how to fly
|
|
I wanna go faster
|
I don't wanna slow down
|
I don't wanna get off of this merrygoround
|
I wanna be reckless
|
I wanna be vain
|
I wanna make love like a runaway train
|
|
Life's been good I said
|
I'm 10,000 miles ahead
|
The day I rest is the day I die
|
I've got a past like a broken wing
|
But you ain't seen anything
|
I'm still learning how to fly
|
I'm still learning how to fly
|
