spread your arms and fly
upon the wings of a hurricane
step outside the race for a day
let your mind roam free
to where you'd like yourself to be
dream escape but never get away

you're going to run
you promised you would
break the ties, if only you could
the lines on your hand
like rivers that flow
can't change from where they have to go

spread your arms and try
to ride the waves, the rising tide
scattered straws of the life you wanted to lead
everytime you feel
the undertow pull you down
lose it all and walk across the sea

you're out on the ledge
it's a long way down
a leap of faith on the wings you've found
the lines on your hand
melt into the road
and take you where you want to go

now that you know.....

spread your arms and try to ride the wind
spread your arms and try to ride the wind
