Don't Know Why I Couldn't Fly
Don't know why I couldn't fly
When I had the wings and all,
Don't know why I didn't try
Was I much too afraid to fall
Teetering on the bridge that day
Arms outstretched, toes to the edge,
Then again, who would jump anyway
From such a treacherous ledge
Looking down from an incredible height
My last breath caught in my throat,
Teary eyed, I lost all of my might
One moment and that was all she wrote
I often think about that time in my life
When every thing was there to try,
When ridicule, rumors, chaos were rife
I don't know why I couldn't fly …
