More smiles and tears
You�ve grown so much
Let go of your fears
It�s now time to fly
Your wings are done
You may be scared
And want to run
If you turn around
You�ll see me there
The one you know
With the crazy hair
There�s tears in my eyes
I have to let go
They�re tears of sadness
But I don�t let it show
You�re taking that step
Away from me
There�s a whole new world
For you to see
You let go of my hand,
Your feet off the ground
There�s nothing to say
We don�t make a sound
You�re reaching out
For bluer skies
While tears are falling
From saddened eyes
You�re floating away
Almost gone from my sight
Your beautiful wings
Have taken to flight
You turn around
To wave goodbye
But I don�t see you
I�ve closed my eyes
A familiar person
Is taking my hand
I open my eyes
Beside me you stand
But I�m not ready
My wings aren�t done
My feet are dragging
You want me to come
I look in your eyes
And know what to do
You�re crying now
You know it too
We wipe our tears
And say goodbye
I know one day
That I will fly
Until that day
Don�t wait for me
It�s your time now
Go on, be free.
