lyrics

Standing on top of the sunshine/ Holding my face to the wind
I smile and I wonder what it's all really supposed to be about
And then it came along and it hit me like a cool breeze
And it rubbed on my nose, as I undressed in the moment
The here and now of my reality that I embrace
Some, they never get that chance to feel such liberation
But me, I welcome it with open arms
And this is an awesome feeling - Sometimes I need to stop and take a breath
It's like you climbed the highest moment/ Sang the perfect harmony
That exact space where you knew you wanted to be
It was all you ever wanted was just a chance to be free
And you have it right now
So don't you try to hold me back/ Don't put your limits on me
I want to open up my eyes and look as far as I can see
If you don't want to fly with me please just let me be

Chorus

And let me go it alone

Happiness is just a word if you don't know how it feels
Sadness an emotion that I refuse to make real
From now on I live my life and make my dreams real
No more fire without light/ No more knowledge without zeal
No more tears without laughter/ No more anger/ No more hurt
I have to take all those things and then I throw them to the dirt
Time to set a course for greatness/ Time to lift my people up
No more walking into walls/ Find the doors to get unstuck
I have to fulfill my destiny/ I am my Father's son
You can walk with me if you'd like/ Together we are one
Together we are strong/ Together we will win
Together we make things right/ Today it all begins
Tomorrow is a new day/ History will remember us well
Yesterday is in the past/ We've got new stories to tell
We've got new suns to kiss/ New horizons to touch
In fact, I've really never wanted anything quite this much
So don't you try to hold me back/ Don't put your limits on me
I want to open up my eyes and look as far as I can see
If you don't want to fly with me please just let me be

Chorus

Life moves so slowly/ Time passes through me
Wind flows so freely/ Carries us softly
And I feel it's time we/ Look at things closely
Please won't you free me...

Chorus
