[Verse 1]
I started out on a dirty road
I started out all alone
The sun went down as I crossed the hill
The town lit up and the world got still
[Chorus]
I'm learnin' to fly (Learnin' to fly)
But I ain't got wings
Comin' down (Learnin' to fly) is the hardest thing
[Verse 2]
The good ol' days may not return
And the rocks might melt, oh, and the sea may burn
[Chorus]
But I'm learning to fly (Learnin' to fly)
But I ain't got wings
Coming down (Learnin to fly) is the hardest thing, oh yeah
[Verse 3]
Well, some say life will beat you down
Break your heart, it'll steal your crown
So I've started out, for God knows where
And I guess I'll know when I get there
[Chorus]
I'm learning to fly (Learnin' to fly) around the clouds
But what goes up (Learnin' to fly) must come down
Must come down but..
I'm learning to fly (Learnin' to fly)
But I ain't got wings
Coming down (Learnin' to fly)
Is the hardest thing, hardest thing, yeah
[Outro]
Oh, whoa
Oh, whoa
Oh, whoa
Oh, whoa
Oh whoa, whoa
I started out on a dirty road
I started out all alone
The sun went down as I crossed the hill
The town lit up and the world got still
[Chorus]
I'm learnin' to fly (Learnin' to fly)
But I ain't got wings
Comin' down (Learnin' to fly) is the hardest thing
[Verse 2]
The good ol' days may not return
And the rocks might melt, oh, and the sea may burn
[Chorus]
But I'm learning to fly (Learnin' to fly)
But I ain't got wings
Coming down (Learnin to fly) is the hardest thing, oh yeah
[Verse 3]
Well, some say life will beat you down
Break your heart, it'll steal your crown
So I've started out, for God knows where
And I guess I'll know when I get there
[Chorus]
I'm learning to fly (Learnin' to fly) around the clouds
But what goes up (Learnin' to fly) must come down
Must come down but..
I'm learning to fly (Learnin' to fly)
But I ain't got wings
Coming down (Learnin' to fly)
Is the hardest thing, hardest thing, yeah
[Outro]
Oh, whoa
Oh, whoa
Oh, whoa
Oh, whoa
Oh whoa, whoa
