I Wanted to Fly (Version 4*)

Colorado Sandstorm Music,B.M.I.

1.	Daddy and I never saw eye to eye
	I was wrong and never knew why*
	He said, "Low." I said, "High."
	He said, "Stay," and I said, "Good bye." 'cause

chorus	I Wanted to Fly, I wanted to soar
	I needed to find out what was outside my* front door
	I wanted to leave*. I had to be free
	His love was my lock, my leash, a load that's too heavy for me

2.	Sometimes we get old and never get wise
	I saw anger in Daddy's eyes
	I never saw love*. I never saw pride
	And it stayed that way till the day that he died

bridge	I cried for my dad, but he didn’t know it.
	Mom said he loved me, and wanted to show it
	So he tried to protect me, but I couldn't breathe*
	Then one night, in a dream, Daddy said to me

chorus	I knew you could fly. I knew you could soar.
	You already had the key to unlock that door
	I knew you would leave*. You were already free.
	My love was your heart, your soul, your wings. You didn't see.

coda	His love was my heart, my soul, my wings. Now I see.

"I had a stormy relationship with my father. Two years after he died, I dreamt about him. In that dream he told me, 'You never needed my help.'"
