Lyrics

You got to leave me now, you got to go alone
You got to chase a dream, one that's all your own
Before it slips away
When you're flyin' high, take my heart along
I'll be the harmony to every lonely song
That you learn to play

When you're soarin' through the air
I'll be your solid ground
Take every chance you dare, I'll still be there
When you come back down, when you come back down

I'll keep lookin' up, awaitin' your return
My greatest fear will be that you will crash and burn
And I won't feel your fire
I'll be the other hand that always holds the line
Connectin' in between your sweet heart and mine
I'm strung out on that wire

I'll be on the other end
To hear you when you call
Angel you were born to fly
If you get too high
I'll catch you when you fall, I'll catch you when you fall

Your memory's the sunshine every new day brings
I know the sky is calling, angel let me help you with your wings

When you're soarin' through the air
I'll be your solid ground
Take every chance you dare, I'll still be there
When you come back down
Take every chance you dare, I'll still be there
When you come back down, when you come back down
