Flight

Let me run through a field in the night Let me lift from the ground til my soul is in flight. Let me sway like the shade of a tree Let me swirl like a cloud in a storm on the sea. Wish me on my way Through the dawning day I, Wanna flow, wanna rise, wanna spill Wanna grow, wanna grow On the side of a hill. I don't care if the train runs late If the checks won't clear If the house blows down. I'll be off where the weeds run wild Where the seeds fall far from this Earthbound town. And I'll start to soar! Watch me rain til I pour out! I'll catch a ship and it'll sail me astray Get caught in a wind and I'll just have to obbey time Time flying away! Flight! Ah Ah Ah Let me leave behind All the clouds in my mind I Wanna wake without wondering why Finding myself for a burst for the sky! Flight! Flight! I'll just roll! Let me lose all control I Wanna float like a wish in a well Free as the sound of the sea in a shell I don't know But maybe I'm just a fool I should keep to the ground I should stay where I'm at Maybe everyone has hunger like this And the hunger will pass But I can't think like that All I know is that somewhere in a clearing (somewhere) There's a grain of sunlight on a river long and wide And I have such a river inside! Let me run through a field in the night! Let me lift from the ground til my soul is in flight! Let me sway like the shade of a tree! Let me swirl like a cloud in a storm on the sea! Wish me on my way! (wish me on my way) Through the dawning day I Wanna flow, wanna rise, wanna spill Wanna grow on the side of a hill Wanna shift like a wave going on Wanna drift from the path I've been traveling upon Before I am gone. --- Flight - Megan McGinnis and Sutton Foster
