Learning to Fly - 2019 remix [Live]

Lyrics

Into the distance, a ribbon of black
 Stretched to the point of no turning back
 A flight of fancy on a windswept field
 Standing alone, my senses reel
 A fatal attraction is holding me fast
 How can I escape this irresistible grasp?
 Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
 Tongue-tied and twisted
 Just an earthbound misfit, I
 Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
 Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
 No navigator to find my way home
 Unladen, empty and turned to stone
 A soul in tension that's learning to fly
 Condition grounded but determined to try
 Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
 Tongue-tied and twisted
 Just an earthbound misfit, I
 Above the planet on a wing and a prayer
 My grubby halo, a vapor trail in the empty air
 Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
 Out of the corner of my watering eye
 A dream unthreatened by the morning light
 Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night
 There's no sensation to compare with this
 Suspended animation, a state of bliss
 Can't keep my mind from the circling sky
 Tongue-tied and twisted
 Just an earthbound misfit, I
