lyrics

I heard a story
About a man
He did the best, the best he can
Down on his luck
Without a plan
He had a love who helped him understand

Sometimes to fly
You gotta fall
Maybe the sun will come
After all
And I'll be here
For you my dear
Sometimes to fly
You gotta fall

There was a moment
When life looked bleak
When there were no words left to speak
A desperate
and broken man
Bowed his head and reached out his hand
No hesitation
She took his arm
Her smile was sweet, her eyes were calm
"You tripped and fell"
I heard her say
"But you’ll live to fight another day"

Sometimes to fly
You gotta fall
Maybe the sun will come
After all
And I'll be here
For you my dear
Sometimes to fly
You gotta fall

Head in the clouds, peace of mind
Don’t forget she could have left you far behind
If she might fall, don’t think twice
To remind her of her own advice

Sometimes to fly
You gotta fall
Maybe the sun will come
After all
And I'll be here
For you my dear
Sometimes to fly
You gotta fall
