You wanted me to fly.
You wanted me to share the sky with you.
Together, we would race towards the horizon,
A s I kept my eyes on how you do the things you do.
But I never even learned to leave ground.

You wanted me to soar above the highest cloud -
To make you stand up tall and proud: Daddy's little girl.
Tucked beneath your wing, you had thought of everything
T o keep me sailing high above this godforsaken world.
But I never even learned to leave ground.

If I spread my wings and finally make a try.
If I falter and plummet from the sky,
W ill you send me back to the nest and hope for the best,
T he next time around.
I never even learned.

You wanted me to fly.
You wanted me to glide beyond the rest.
For all your nurturing - the help you thought that it would bring -
W here I've ended up I bet you never would have guessed.
