Lyrics

0:17Well I started out down a dirty road
0:25Started out all alone
0:33And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
0:39And the town lit up the world got still
0:50I'm learning to fly but I ain't got wings
0:58Coming down is the hardest thing
1:06Well the good ol' days may not return
1:14And the rocks might melt & the sea may burn
1:21I'm learning to fly but I ain't got wings
1:31Coming down is the hardest thing
2:01Well some say life will beat you down break your heart steal your
2:13Crown
2:16So I've started out for God knows where
2:24I guess I'll know when I get there
2:33I'm learning to fly around the clouds
2:41But what goes up must come down
3:01I'm learning to fly but I ain't got wings
3:10Coming down is the hardest thing
3:18I'm learning to fly around the clouds
3:26But what goes up must come down
3:35I'm learning to fly I'm learning to fly
Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down  as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up  the world got still
I'm learning to fly  but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well the good ol' days  may not return
And the rocks might melt & the sea may burn
I'm learning to fly  but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well some say life will beat you down  break your heart  steal your
Crown
So I've started out  for God knows where
I guess I'll know when I get there
I'm learning to fly  around the clouds
But what goes up must come down
I'm learning to fly  but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
I'm learning to fly  around the clouds
But what goes up must come down
I'm learning to fly I'm learning to fly
