Well the "Good old days" may not return.
And the rocks might melt,
and the sea may burn.
(short solo)
 
The senory life,
will beat you down.
And break your heart,
steal your crown.
 
So start it out,
for God knows where.
I guess I'll know,
when I get there.
Refrain. Repeat refrain.
(inst. break)
refrain, repeat.
I'm learnin to fly,
I'm learnin to fly.
 
Enjoy!
