Born to Fly

My song choice this week is nothing too deep. It is merely a country song that I love and by love I mean one I sing in my car. No, I don't sing anywhere else but the car. I can't sing so I don't except in my car and oh and in church quietly (I figure if anyone will forgive me God will). This song came out while I was finishing up Grad School so it had some meaning for me but really I just liked it. I was fortunate to be able to go to the "Girls Night Out" concert at the San Jose Arena with my bestest bud. We say Reba, Sarah Evans, Martina McBride, Carolyn Dawn Johnson and I think that was it. It was awhile ago. So here is "Born the Fly" by Sarah Evans.

Adoption wise, nothing new to report. Still hanging at #26 for now and keeping my finger crossed that all the recent referrals make it through court and get speedy travel dates.

"Born To Fly"
I've been tellin' my dreams to the scarecrow
'Bout the places that I'd like to see
I said, friend do you think I'll ever get there
Ah, but he just stands there smilin' back at me

So I confessed my sins to the preacher
About the love I've been prayin' to find
Is there a brown eyed boy in my future, yeah
He says. girl you've got nothin' but time

But how do you wait for heaven
And who has that much time
And how do you keep your feet on the ground
When you know, that you were born,
you were born to fly

My daddy, he's grounded like the oak tree
My momma, she is steady as the sun
Oh you know I love my folks
But I keep starin' down the road
Just lookin' for my one chance to run

Yeah, 'cause I will soar away like the blackbird
I will blow in the wind like a seed
I will plant my heart in the garden of my dreams
And I will grow up where I'll wander wild and free

Oh, how do you wait for heaven
And who has that much time
And how do you keep your feet on the ground
When you know, that you were born
You were born yeah
You were born to fly

So how do you wait for heaven
And who has that much time
And how do you keep your feet on the ground
When you know that you were born
You were born to fly fly fly fly
