Lyrics
FLY LITTLE SISTER
EVERYONE WAS PRAYING FOR YOU
HOPING THAT YOU'D BE THE ONE WHO'D
FIND A WAY TO BEAT THIS THING
FEW HAD CONQUERED THIS OLD KILLER
IN SPITE OF THIS IT DID NOT DETOUR YOU
WHEN IT LANDED VICIOUS SWINGS
WE'D HOPED THAT YOU WOULD STAY RIGHT HERE
REALITY WAS DRAWING NEAR
AS WE ALL BEGAN TO SEE
IT WAS TIME FOR YOU TO LOOK AHEAD
GET OFF YOUR FEET AND OUT OF BED
IT WAS TIME TO SET YOU FREE
CHORUS:
GO ON AND FLY LITTLE SISTER
THERE IS NOTHING LEFT TO FIGHT
GO ON AND DANCE WITH THE ANGELS AND
HEAD ON HOME TONIGHT
YOUR TIME WITH US GONE IN AN INSTANT
YET YOU LEFT ETERNAL IMPRINTS
ON THE MINDS OF EVERYONE
SOMEHOW THROUGH YOUR DARKEST HOURS
RAGING STORMS AND SCATTERED SHOWERS
YOU STAYED FOCUSED ON THE SUN
MY MIND NOW PAINTS A DANCING GIRL
THAT JUMPS AND TWISTS AND LEAPS AND TWIRLS
THOSE WERE THINGS YOU LOVED TO DO
YOU'RE RESTING IN YOUR HAPPY PLACE
AND MILES OF SMILES ARE ON YOUR FACE
THAT'S WHAT 9 YEAR OLDS SHOULD DO
REPEAT CHORUS
BREAKDOWN WITH CHILDREN
FLY SO HIGH...DANCE TONIGHT
CHORUS REPEAT
CHORUS REPEAT WITH BACKGROUND VOCALS
