For anyone coming back from illness or injury...

lyrics

I am standing at my window, all the traffic rushing by.
I am captive in my tower, watching life from way up high.
I am weaker than a kitten, as I shuffle here and there,
I feel like I've been bitten by the bug of woe and care.

I want to run. I want to fly. I want to stretch up to the sky.
Become who I was yesterday, not let life just pass me by.
I want to fly. I want to run.
I want to reach up to the sun.
How I long for my tomorrow, when my old life has begun.

I am tired of the struggle.
I am tired of the pain.
I am ready to be ready to live my life again.
I didn't see this coming. It wasn't in my plan.
It's been a long hard winter --
I’m ready for spring again.

I want to run. I want to fly. I want to stretch up to the sky.
Become who I was yesterday, not let life just pass me by.
I want to fly. I want to run. I want to reach up to the sun.
How I long for my tomorrow, when my old life has begun.

Today I left my tower to go wander in the sun.
Today I started walking; maybe tomorrow I can run.

Cuz' I’m going to run. I’m going to fly.
I’m going to stretch up to the sky.
Become who I was yesterday, not let life just pass me by.
I’m going to fly, I’m going to run.
I’m going to reach up to the sun.
Now I've started my tomorrow, and my old life has begun.
