Just Fly

When your days seem long
and you think you can't go on
take a breath, and look to the sky
With your arms outstretched 
and the world beneath your feet
Spread your wings...
and just fly

Just fly
high above the mountains
Just fly
across the open sea
Give yourself that chance
let your spirit dance...
and just fly

When your worries get you down
and those chains keep you bound
break loose, no more to cry
For the courage within
gives a new place to begin
So spread your wings...
and just fly

Just fly 
high above the mountains
Just fly
across the open sea
Give yourself that chance
let your spirit dance...
and just fly
