In this world there's a whole lot of trouble, baby In this world there's a whole lot of pain In this world there's a whole lot of trouble But a whole lot of ground to gain
Why take when you could be giving? Why watch as the world goes by? It's a long enough life to be living Why walk when you can fly?
In this world there's a whole lot of sorrow In this world there's a whole lot of shame In this world there's a whole lot of sorrow But a whole lot of ground to gain
When you spend your whole life wishing Watching and wondering why It's a hard enough life to be living Why walk when you can fly?
In this world there's a whole lot of golden In this world there's a whole lot of plain In this world you've a soul for a compass And a heart for a pair of wings
There's a star on the far horizon Rising bright in an azure sky But with the rest of the time you've been given Why walk when you can fly High High
