Rodney Crowell - Still Learning How To Fly Lyrics
The hour is earlyThe whole world is quietA beautiful morning's about to igniteI'm ready for dangerI'm ready for fireI'm ready for something to lift me up higherLife's been good, I guessMy ragged old heart's been blessedWith so much more than meets the eyeI've got a past I won't soon forgetYou ain't seen nothing yetI'm still learning how to flyIt's the dreams that die hardWith old habits to breakYou can't let down your guardWhen there's so much at stakeI'm halfway to heaven, halfway to hellBut I might roll a sevenYou never can tellLife's been good it's trueWhen I'm feeling just like newThe same old rules need not applyI've got a past full of sticks and stonesAnd a good feeling in my bonesI'm still learning how to flyI wanna go fasterI don't wanna slow downI don't wanna get off of this merrygoroundI wanna be recklessI wanna be vainI wanna make love like a runaway trainLife's been good I saidI'm 10,000 miles aheadThe day I rest is the day I dieI've got a past like a broken wingBut you ain't seen anythingI'm still learning how to flyI'm still learning how to fly
