Roots And Wings - Anne Murray
Flying down the street on my American ace
I was fast on my feet
Or flat on my face
Testing my freedom
From that day on
Runnin' down the wind all the way back home
That bike you gave me
Was one of my favorite things
That day I discovered you'd given me roots and wings
Roots and wings gifts of love
Holding me strong and lifting me up
Child of the earth
And a rider of the wind
A dreamer of dreams caught in between
Roots and wings
You weren't standing in my way
When I was 18
Letting your heart break and letting me leave
I was headin' my chevy for the great unknown
Knowing you'd be waiting at the end of that road
Sometimes you've doubted
The wisdom of my foolish dreams
You never once denied me my
Roots and wings
Roots and wings gifts of love
Holding me strong and lifting me up
Child of the earth and a rider of the wind
A dreamer of dreams caught in between
Roots and wings
Now part of me wants to stay close to the ground
And part of me never wants to come down
Roots and wings gifts of love
A dreamer of dreams caught in between
Roots and wings
A dreamer of dreams caught in between
Roots and wings
