about
"When we walk to the edge of all the light we have, and take the step into the darkness of the unknown, we must believe one of two things will happen: there will be something solid for us to stand on, or we will be taught how to fly." - Claire Norris
lyrics
When darkness enters in, you feel you’ve reached your limit
and winter’s silent depths come to visit
The branches of dead trees are bony fingers pointing
at every last beauty leaving your story
Pre-Chorus: If you can’t find your footing
no solid ground to stand on
call on your angels waiting with your wings
Chorus: And fly baby, just try, the sky is waiting tonight
a thousand tries is all it takes to fly
Yes, fly baby, just try, the sky is waiting tonight
a thousand tries is all it takes to fly
The light will lead the way as all illusions fade
you hear them call your name, the one that heaven gave
They gather ‘round you now and welcome you abound
and all your fears fall down as love surrounds
Pre-Chorus 2: They help you find your footing
some solid ground to stand on
they are your angels waiting with your wings
Chorus
