Lyrics
(Intro)
When I was just a little boy, I felt so trapped inside.
I used to grab a prop - anything - and I would come alive! Now all I want to do is be on the stage, where I can be someone besides little old me. And I can fly away, or swim under the sea...
I'm gonna - I'm gonna fly to the top of the world!
I'm gonna - I'm gonna fly to the top of the world!
Just watch me spread my wings,
Just watch me laugh and sing,
Just watch me reach my hands up to the sky! And if you say that I won't, I will. And if you say that I can't, I can!If you say that I won't win that race, I'll start over again.
I'm gonna! I'm gonna fly to the top of the world! I'm gonna - I'm gonna fly to the top of the world!
Just watch me spread my wings. Just watch me laugh and sing. Just watch me reach my hands way past the sky!
And if you say that I won't I will! And if you say that I can't, I can! If you say that I won't win that race, I'll start over again and again and again and again and again and again and again...
