lyrics

"Fallin' ain't flyin'," that's what my cousin said. I said, "You'll never know better, if you wait 'til you're dead. Me and my brother stepped up to the ledge, then we all went over, and before I hit the water...

Chorus
I'll fly, for a moment. I'll jump off, thought I might die. I'd rather live, and die, than never spread my wings and fly.

Miss Hartlee was a young girl, back when we met, I didn't want to take a chance and 'get my heart broke' again. "Come with me forever," I whispered and took her hand. I couldn't keep it together, but I went for it and said...

Repeat Chorus

In the bottom of that lifeboat, waves crashing all around, I was fixing to lose it as the crane boom lowered down. When we dropped that shackle, with the pin in our hands, I didn't think that we'd make it, but we came through as friends. When the hull left the water, I heard my old song again. I whispered to myself, "Thanks God, for playing it again."

Repeat Chorus 2x
