Andrew Peterson - Why Walk When You Can Fly Lyrics
Artist: Andrew Peterson
Album: Miscellaneous
Genre: Rock
- Songwriters: Mary Chapin Carpenter
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 hard enough life to be living
Why walk, when you can fly?
See, 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
Wanting and wondering why
It's a long 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 for the rest of the time you've been given
Why walk, when you can fly high, high?
