Everyone Can Fly Lyrics
Turn off your mind,
And go back with me to a better time.
Do you see the same moon I do?
When I'm thinking of you.
Well that's okay,
We can try again, another day.
Do you feel the same breeze I feel?
Lifting you up, lifting me up,
Lifting us up.
'Cause everyone can fly.
Everyone can fly.
Everyone can fly,
You just have to try.
Turn out the lights,
And don't be afraid of another night.
To the promises you couldn't keep,
Make it out for you to sleep.
Well that's okay,
Everybody makes the same mistakes.
As the stars shine the night away,
Let'em lift you up, let'em lift you up,
Let'em lift you up.
'Cause everyone can fly.
Everyone can fly.
Everyone can fly,
You just have to try.
Did you ever stop and think when you were twenty?
You'd be where you are today?
Isn't it funny how things change?
Some things never stay the same...
...what a shame.
Forget the gray, I can see you
Turning a greener shade,
Do you feel the same faith I feel?
Let it lift you up, let it lift you up,
Let it lift you up.
'Cause everyone can fly.
Everyone can fly.
Everyone can fly,
You just have to try.
You just have to try.
You just have to try.
Everyone can fly.
And go back with me to a better time.
Do you see the same moon I do?
When I'm thinking of you.
We can try again, another day.
Do you feel the same breeze I feel?
Lifting you up, lifting me up,
Lifting us up.
Everyone can fly.
Everyone can fly,
You just have to try.
And don't be afraid of another night.
To the promises you couldn't keep,
Make it out for you to sleep.
Everybody makes the same mistakes.
As the stars shine the night away,
Let'em lift you up, let'em lift you up,
Let'em lift you up.
Everyone can fly.
Everyone can fly,
You just have to try.
You'd be where you are today?
Isn't it funny how things change?
Some things never stay the same...
...what a shame.
Turning a greener shade,
Do you feel the same faith I feel?
Let it lift you up, let it lift you up,
Let it lift you up.
Everyone can fly.
Everyone can fly,
You just have to try.

What a perfect "coming of age" song! I think it encapsulates the realization we have in mid-adulthood: most of our wildest childhood dreams will never come true, and then realizing how much magic is still possible in the time we have left. It's about losing that youthful naivete but keeping your optimism.
