Raise your head, meagerest of fledglings

And breathe in deep and cease to cry

For life it beats within you to fix upon the sky

And fix upon the sky and fix, fix upon The sky is beckoning your coming

Your feathered nest has grown too small

The wind is here to greet you, spread your wings and simply fall

Spread your wings and simply fall, spread your wings

Spread your wings and simply Fall into the rushing air and then struggle

And struggle and fight to rise above and then surrender to your freedom

For these are the many pains of love and these are the many pains of love

And many many are the pains, the pains of love That frightening fall has become a friend with gravity, now do you play?

Inches from death and the frozen ground and then away

The clouds separate to reveal the warmth

Of the goldenest bright shining sea

Nigh falls and it's gone again but now you're free to give it chase And to soar through Heaven, mightiest of eagles

And rule your minions of the sky, the earth is far below you

Once it's prisoner now do you fly? Once just a fledgling now do you fly?

Now my fledgling, now my fledgling, now do you fly free?
