I've been telling my dreams to the scarecrow
About the places that I'd like to see
I say "Friend do you think I'll ever get there?"
Aw, but he just stands there smiling back at me
So I confess my sins to the preacher
About the love I've been praying to find
Is there a brown eyed boy in my future
And he says, "Girl, you've got nothing but time"
But how do you wait for heaven
And who has that much time
And how do you keep your feet on the ground
When you know that you were born , you were born to fly
My daddy is grounded like the oak tree
My momma she is steady as the sun
Oh, you know I love my folks, but I keep staring down the road
Just looking for my one chance to run
Yeah, 'cause I will soar away like the blackbird
I will blow in the wind like a seed
I will plant my heart in the garden of my dreams
And I will grow up where I'll wander wild and free
But how do you wait for heaven
And who has that much time
And how do you keep your feet on the ground
When you know that you were born , you were born to fly
You were born, yeah , you were born to fly
But how do you wait for heaven
And who has that much time
And how do you keep your feet on the ground
When you know that you were born , you were born to fly
