flight

I'd spread my wings to soar in flight If I but had the courage to make the leap Brave and bold I'd face the morning light I'd rage against the coming of the night And when seduction spun silken songs of sleep I'd spread my wings to soar in flight And though no ancient god would heed my plight Though come the dawn my woes I'd have to reap Brave and bold I'd face the morning light In life's arena I refuse to fight I'll weather storms and sail the oceans deep I'd spread my wings to soar in flight Though sorrows still assail me in all their might No salt-drenched fears nor hopeless tears I'll weep Brave and bold I'd face the morning light And now I come to the final edge of sight To embrace the dawn the shadow's fingers creep I'll spread my wings and soar in flight Brave and bold I'll face the morning light
