Show me how to fall Without breaking every bone in my body Show me how to love Without giving every piece of my heart And I'll tell you a story Of a man who went to sea Trailing hope and glory To bring it home to me Show me how to fly With the flur of the butterfly's wing Show me how to die When there's life in every note that I sing And I'll tell you a story Of a man who went to sea Trailing hope and glory To bring it home to me And he sailed away A year and a day Heaven is a place that we think is way above us than our sky But I found it in the face of a man that brought that sunlight in his eyes And I'll tell you a story Of a man who went to sea Trailing hope and glory To bring it home to me
