When I am scared Lord
And time has been lost
When fear just engulfs me
With a terrible cost
When I am lonely
And full of despair
When the life I am given
Seems awfully unfair
When I'm frustrated
And anger ensues
When all I can manage
Is to yell and accuse~
Teach me to fly Lord, teach me to fly.
Fly above mountains and fly above clouds
Fly above barriers fly above crowds
When I feel forgotten
And all that I see
Are the roadblocks and raindrops
Following me
Teach me to fly Lord, teach me to fly
