Mama, don't you cry
Don't you worry
I cannot stay here any longer
The time has come to find a distant calling
That only seems to get much stronger
And I know it's hard
To see the one you come to lean on make his way
Far beyond the womb
But, I can't stay
I won't stop running
I'm only getting closer
To getting off the ground this ti me
The sky is calling, the wind is at my shoulders
Won't let this chance pass me b y
Mama, I'm bent to fly
Remember yesterday
Before the storm
Before the innocence was lost
I promised I would stay forevermore
But every boy, in time, moves on
Your wounds will heal someday
This I know, but I am restless and so torn
Mama, I can't stay here anymore
I won't stop running
I'm only getting closer
To getting off the ground this ti me
The sky is calling, the wind is at my shoulders
Won't let this chance pass me b y
Mama, I'm bent to fly
I can feel it coming
A perfect storm is rising
Gotta say my last goodbye
Mama, don't you cry
Don't you worry
I cannot stay here any longer
I won't stop running
I'm only getting closer
To getting off the ground this ti me
The sky is calling, the wind is at my shoulders
Won't let this chance pass me b y
Mama, I'm bent to fly
(Ponte)
I can feel it coming
A perfect storm is rising
Gotta say my last goodbye
