Lyrics[]
Kayley: If you were with me now I'd find myself in you If you were with me now Your the only one who knew All the things we planned to do
I want to live my life The way you said I would With courage as my light Fighting for what's right Like you made me believe I could
And I will fly on my father's wings To places I have never been There is so much I've never seen And I can feel his heartbeat still And I will do great things On my father's wings
This world I'll never see My dreams that just won't be This horse's stride with one days ride Will have covered more distance than me
But I will fly on my father's wings To places I have never been There is so much I've never seen And I can feel his heartbeat still And I will do great things On my father's wings
Someday with his spirit to guide me And his memory beside me I will be free to
Fly on my father's wings To places I have never been There is so much I've never seen And I can feel his heartbeat still And I will do great things On my father's wings On my father's wings
