On the wings of an angel
we’ll fly away from home,
seeking our fortune
in the great unknown
standing tall and proud
willing to face it all
scared, excited, uncertain,
oh aren’t we all.
we’ll find our way sometime, somewhere
we’ll seek out our fortunes grand
and hopefully at the end of our roads,
we can be proud of where we stand.
we’ll take our knowledge, humor, and past
and we’ll build a future from our dreams
we’ll collect all we’ve longed for and place it
in a bag with golden seams.
a bag of treasures and wonders
that have awed us all our lives
why things happen, what’s the secret to life?
how far, how long, how high?
We’ll test out all our boundaries
strive to get the best of every day
life’s too quick, and we don’t want to
miss anything along the way.
And one day tired and happy we’ll sit,
and dream of yesterdays past
hope for tomorrow’s never-ending,
but for how long can tomorrow’s last?
So journey your journey of greatness
discover all you can be in the great unknown
and then one day the wings of an angel
will carry you safely back home.
