Mya · Fear of Flying
cause we have no say in how it ends up.
well in my mind, luvs the very same way
that's why i never give my heart to no one
i never take a chance
on a love that lifts me off the ground (oh yeah)
i cling 2 earth bound things
but i wanna spread my wings somehow (somehow)
i've got a fear of flying high
but im prepared 2 spread my wings (oh)
it's all in my mind
love defines all gravity
voices in the wind
i can hear 'em welcoming me to fly
think im flyin high flying high flyin high
i've been in love but i fell too fast
I found myself in turbulent skies
I felt the hurt when I crashed and burned
Then I found myself with tears in my eyes
But when you look at me
something says it's gonna be all right (gonna be all right)
all right (gonna be all right)
and all my fears i'll faced
cause i think im gonna take this flight
i've got a fear of flying high
but im prepared 2 spread my wings (oh)
it's all in my mind
love defines all gravity
voices in the wind
i can hear 'em welcoming me to fly
think im flyin high flying high flyin high
ohhhh
suddently something beyond the clouds is calling me
and your love to me is like therapy
for my soul
so i'm ready to soar
fear of flying high (think i'm think i'm)
it's all in my mind (think i'm think i'm)
voices in the wind (think i'm think i'm)
think im flying high flying high flying high
