Lyrics

Being good isn't good enough

Being good won't be good enough

When I fly, I must fly extra high

And I'll need special wings, so far to go

From so far below

Should I try?

Am I strong enough?

Is there time?

Have I long enough?

Gotta fly, and if I fall

That's the way it's gotta be

There's no other way for me

Being good just won't be good enough

I'll be the best or nothing at all

I'll try

Am I strong enough?

Is there time?

Have I long enough?

Gotta fly and if I fall

Well that's the way it's gotta be

There's no other way for me

Being good just won't be good enough

I'll be the best or nothing at all
