fly with me

 
Learning to Fly
Tom Petty

Well I started out 
down a dirty road
Started out 
all alone 
And the sun went down 
as I crossed the hill 
The town lit up 
and the world got still 

I'm learning to fly 
but I ain't got wings 
Comin' down 
is the hardest thing 

Now the good old days 
may not return 
And the rocks might melt, 
and the sea may burn 

I'm learning to fly 
but I ain't got wings 
Comin' down 
is the hardest thing 

Well some say life 
will beat you down 
It'll break your heart, 
steal your crown 

So I started out 
for God knows where 
But I guess I'll know 
when I get there 

I'm learning to fly 
around the clouds 
But what goes up 
must come down 

I'm learning to fly 
but I ain't got wings 
Comin' down 
is the hardest thing 

I'm learning to fly 
around the clouds 
But what goes up 
must come down 

I'm learning to fly 
I'm learning to fly

Can we fly to a cool spot? I feel like an old cranky woman. But, it is too hot to go outside!!!
