Afraid to Fly Lyrics

What would you pay for the chance to go back

Take the chance you passed up all those years ago

The pain in your face shows that you failed to chase

your dreams

That you let them go



But I won’t be the one to leave my dreams behind

Just call it a gift to my future peace of mind



You seem to feel that you’ve earned the right

To say you could’ve done this and would’ve done that

I rather think that you came to brink

Afraid to fly, you just turned back



But I will be the one to leap into the unknown

The only way you find out if my wings have grown



Come with me let’s see if I can fly

Might just be the first an the last time I try

I can’t go on knowing that I might’ve seen the sky

But I must be both you and I

You and I



This is the choice from which you cannot hide

Choose how you’ll live for the rest of your life

The hardest choice to make is the one that’s right



Never assume that you’re all alone

To everyone this path has been shown



I won’t be the one to leave my dreams behind

Just call it a gift to my future peace of mind



(Repeat first chorus)



I can’t believe that you’re asking me why

Live with endless regret, or take our chance to fly

Alone I’ll be falling from the sky

You know it must be both you and I

You and I
