From the recording Soar
"Soar" is an empowerment anthem about second chances and finding wing to fly. The track begins with an acoustic duet, and soon soars with harmonizing electric guitars, rhythm section, a female lead and full background vocals.
Lyrics
Got no wings to leave the ground, so I’m waiting on a windy day
Spread my arms, and catch it right, and my troubles gonna fall away
All my second chances will be waiting for me
Standing behind the horizon line, like a lovin that could carry me
I wanna soar, I wanna soar
I keep on pushing forward, like I got somewhere to go
The spirit is willing, but the body is slow
So I walk out on the wire, take a breath and let it go
Woke up this morning, said my luck is gonna change today
Bought my ticket and packed my bags, but the train had just pulled away
Hung out a while at the station, but that party was a state away
Guess my lucky break will just have to wait another day
I wanna soar, I wanna soar
I keep on pushing forward, like I got somewhere to go
The spirit is willing, but the body is slow
But I walk out on the wire, take a breath and let it go
I’ll fly high
I’ll fly high
I’ll fly high
At least I’ll give it a try
I wanna soar, I wanna soar
My feet are getting lighter, my toes lift off the floor
I can see the sunlight comin, like the crack under the door
Leave my cares behind me now, Yeah I’m gonna soar
