Airborne
Your heart insisted down this road
Where you could only retrace broken hearts
Hopping along a naive green toad
Taking your chances in a three-wheeled cart
Make the leap...why not take the step
You’ve had your wings since you were born
Take the step...from nothing make your stamp
Spread across the sky...so high you’re airborne
You might lose control and come crashing down
That’s okay, we all must rise and fall
It’s up to you to get back up and get even
Defy gravity...’cos the ground only levels us all
Your whole’s stronger than these hurts...they heal
Your soul reaches farther than any craft
The heart pumps more than just our blood...it’s hell
Written so beautifully, life’s unedited script
So 2.5 kids later, we’re still together
But you're not average, slightly older and aging gracefully
Sitting on this porch, our life memories we gather
Grateful we ever got to meet unintentionally
A fairytale ending we seldom ‘in the end’ ever get
But you’d never know if you don’t make the leap
You’d fall in love or get pushed even further apart
‘cos from nothing you became airborne...you gave me hope
