Why Walk When You Can Fly

In this world there's a whole lot of trouble baby

In this world there's a whole lot of pain

In this world there's a whole lot of trouble but

A whole lot of ground to gain

Why take when you could be givin'?

Why watch as the world goes by?

It's a hard enough life to be livin'

Why walk when you can fly?

In this world there's a whole lot of sorrow

In this world there's a whole lot of shame

In this world there's a whole lot of sorrow

And a whole lot of ground to gain

When you spend your whole life wishin'

Wantin' and wonderin' why

It's a long enough life to be livin'

Why walk when you can fly?

And in this world there's a whole lot of golden

In this world there's a whole lot of plain

In this world you've a soul for a compass

And a heart for a pair of wings

There's a star on the far horizon

Risin' bright in an azure sky

But the rest of the time that you're given

Why walk when you can fly high?
