Lyrics

Jungles where the tigers sleep The neon glares And talk is cheap Stairways that lead to dreams You turn around A siren screams Energy glows in the heart of the city You stand in the shadows or reach for the sky This time the promise is not just illusion I'm heading for glory, I'm learning to fly Out there you feel the heat It's face to face, I cross the street Help me I've done a fare I need a ride So take me there Everything's moving out of the city They murder with kisses and then wonder why Everyone's looking out over their shoulder We've all gotta jump so I'm learning to fly I see a figure there, look back at me I stand and stare Searching for sanity To break the force of gravity Learning to fly Learning to fly Learning to fly
