Find Your Wings
by John Michael Ray

The hurt, it doesn’t last forever
The pain will surely go away
I promise that you’ll never, ever feel
The way you feel right here today
Put your hand in mine and follow
And we’ll head off to the unknown
Within this sky could be our heaven
Within this heaven could be home

When you find your wings
And you fly away
I’ll smile, I knew you when
Then we can part our ways
But until that day, that you can say
Today I’m not afraid
I’ll be a soft place
Soft place to land

The scars will fade as they are healing
The tears will dry in their own time
I know that words alone can’t save you
Life can’t be summed up in a rhyme
So try, try and see tomorrow
But, don’t you ever let go of today
Because today is all that you can count on
Tomorrow’s a lifetime away

When you find your wings
And you fly away
I’ll smile, I knew you when
Then we can part our ways
But until that day, that you can say
Today I’m not afraid
I’ll be a soft place
Soft place to land

How many times do you have to bottom out
Before you stop falling
How many times do you have to be silenced
Before you stop calling
How many times do you have to amaze
Before it’s no longer stunning
How many times do you have to look back
Before you stop running

When you find your wings
And you fly away
I’ll smile, I knew you when
Then we can part our ways
But until that day, that you can say
Today I’m not afraid
I’ll be a soft place
Soft place to land
