Everyone's looking for something
When they find it, they only feel let down
The truth is, I think I'm addicted
To the feeling of getting and growing
See my arms held out
See my arms laid out
The days become long and I'm weary
of ambitions that are nothing but vanity
Striving for meaning in motion
Rest pretty sisters, your sorrows will fade
See my arms held out
See my arms laid down
See my eyes face down
See my heart fade out
One bright morning when this life is over, I'll fly away
To a land of God's celestial shore, I'll fly away
I'll fly away, O' glory, I'll fly away
When I die, alleluia by and by, I'll fly away
