War Child
"Walk Until You Fly"
The colors painted on your skin
Tell them where you have been
But what they can't do is untie
Your deepest, secret inside
In through the coldest winters
Smiles through unwanted blisters
You have traveled with your hands
To reach this promised land
I'm not standing on ground
I want to just fly around
Jesus help me please
To get up off these knees
You've been walking in the same old shoes
Passing through streets of the same old news
Clenched fists in your pockets
Holding onto old picture lockets
Take off these boots of rain
Dry them in the sun
Wipe off that teary stain
And let your bare feet run
I'm not standing on ground
I want to just fly around
Jesus help me please
To get up off my knees
And in the hollow evening
When the stars come out at night
Who are you gonna turn to
When Heaven is your only light?
Heaven...on your mind
Walk by and by and by...
I'm not standing on ground
I want to just fly around
Jesus help me please
To get up off my knees
Walk through your longest days
Walk through this wretched maze
Walk until your heart explodes
Through the next episode
Walk to the sun
Where the answers lie
Walk to the sun
Walk until you fly
Walk until you fly
The colors painted on your skin
Tell them where you have been
But what they can't do is untie
Your deepest, secret inside
In through the coldest winters
Smiles through unwanted blisters
You have traveled with your hands
To reach this promised land
I'm not standing on ground
I want to just fly around
Jesus help me please
To get up off these knees
You've been walking in the same old shoes
Passing through streets of the same old news
Clenched fists in your pockets
Holding onto old picture lockets
Take off these boots of rain
Dry them in the sun
Wipe off that teary stain
And let your bare feet run
I'm not standing on ground
I want to just fly around
Jesus help me please
To get up off my knees
And in the hollow evening
When the stars come out at night
Who are you gonna turn to
When Heaven is your only light?
Heaven...on your mind
Walk by and by and by...
I'm not standing on ground

Walk through your longest days
Walk through this wretched maze
Walk until your heart explodes
Through the next episode
Walk to the sun
Where the answers lie
Walk to the sun
Walk until you fly
Walk until you fly
