i'd give anything...

o, i'd give anything to fly
just like an eagle, way up high
soaring, gliding, up in the sky
o, i'd give anything to fly

BUT MY FEARS KEEP ME ON THE GROUND

o, how i would love to dance
moving my feet to rhythmic chants
leaping, dipping, caught in a trance
o, how i would love to dance

BUT IN BRACES, MY LEGS ARE BOUND

o, how i would love to run
fast as a cheetah, that'd be fun
quickly, quickly, the race is won
o, how i would love to run

BUT I CAN'T MOVE--I'M PARALYZED

o, how i would love to sing
raise my voice and let it ring
my words, my words, would have wings
o, how i would love to sing

MY VOICE IS SILENT...IT'S DISGUISED

o, i'd give anything to fly
just like an eagle way up high
soaring, gliding, up in the sky
o, i'd give anything to fly

HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU CAN'T...UNLESS YOU TRY
------------------------------------------------------------
NEVER give up on hope or dreams...if
someone told you, "you can't," don't
belive them.

You can.

You may go about the task you are
attempting in a different way, or
maybe you are slower at the task.

Just try.

Unless you try, how do you know you
can't?

Karma Bank to Following By Listening by Chiemi

These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .
