Learning To Fly
Pink Floyd
Into the distance
A ribbon of black
Stretched to the point
Of no turning back
A flight of fancy
On a windswept field
Standing alone
My senses reeled
A fatal attraction
Is holding me fast
How can I escape
This irresistible grasp
Can't keep my eyes
From the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted
Just an earth-bound misfit
I
Ice is forming
On the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings
I thought
I thought of everything
No navigator
To find my way home
Unladened
Empty
And turned to stone
A soul in tension
That's learning to fly
Condition grounded
But determined to try
Can't keep my eyes
From the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted
Just an earth-bound misfit
I
Above the planet
On a wing and a prayer
My grubby halo
A vapor trail
In the empty air
Across the clouds
I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner
Of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened
By the morning light
Could blow this soul
Right through
The roof of the night
There's no sensation
To compare with this
Suspended animation
A state of bliss
Can't keep my mind
From the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted
Just an earth-bound misfit
I
