Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Let's say hello
To the real world
Give her a wave
Tell her it's okay
To be scared of being discovered
Find it hard to trust another
To feel awful like a child when you are grown
[Verse 2]
Saw you swoop by
On that frosty night
I swear it was you
Lord, it must be true
I am tired, but my eyes are shining
Be the one who catches lightning
But I'm scared of letting all the magic go
[Verse 3]
And how do you fly?
'Cause I think I'm ready
To give it a try
[Verse 4]
Let's say hello
To the real world
Bring on the rain
It'll be okay
How do you fly round the planet?
Can you speak in every language?
How will I create my own path through the world?
[Verse 5]
And how do you fly?
'Cause I think I'm ready
To give it a try
[Verse 6]
And how do you fly?
'Cause I think I'm ready
To give it a try
[Verse 7]
I hear your feet
On my old slate roof
I'll stay in bed
No, I don't need proof
Let me hold on to the magic
Now close your eyes, my sweet romantic
When they open, there's another Christmas day
[Verse 8]
And how do you fly?
'Cause I think I'm ready
To give it a try
[Verse 9]
And how do you fly?
'Cause I think I'm ready
To give it a try
[Verse 10]
I think I'm ready to give it a try
I think I'm ready to give it a try
