Fly On

FLY ON
written by Doug Moreland, ASCAP (composer/author and publisher)

The weight of my world rests on my shoulders
The first frost of fall always seems so much colder
Across the pasture lies the shadows of the evening
To count the stars in the western sky is kind of like counting my blessings

I know I can’t have it all, but I’m always gonna be trying
We’re on now more than we’re off, soon we’re gonna be flying
Fly on, fly on, fly on

Satisfaction and accomplishments are the what-for that my heart drives
Yeah, I shun the darkness of doubt as I sail right through the strife
Moon rises above the hill, the light spreads across the field
There’s a wolf running right behind me, man I know just how he feels

I know I can’t have it all, but I’m always gonna be trying
We’re on now more than we’re off, soon we’re gonna be flying
Fly on, fly on, fly on

Silver wheels shining in the setting sun
Rolling down the highway, worries next to none
Sun comes up sun goes down, sometimes one before the other
This is your captain speaking, we’ve about reached cruising altitude
Set your seat back, let the lady take your order

I know I can’t have it all, but I’m always gonna be trying
We’re on now more than we’re off, soon we’re gonna be flying
Fly on, fly on, fly on
