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
