Unable to Fly Lyrics

My brothers and I were born of the sky
The curse lay on me unable to fly
But in the first few months of our lives
Carefree in the sun we all would lie

A year found our growth too great for the nest
But born to the wings was strength for the rest
So restless all my brother become
Anxious in their quest to reach the sun

Then my mother said to me
That I alone must sail the sea
And that my father's hand
Had carved a wooden boat for me
Then she cried

Aye, then I turned around and saw her
As she spread her wings
To greet the sky so blue
And she flew

The time passes slow
I watch it all go
Was born of a kind
That I'll never know

Now that I have finally found
The place that I am supposed to go
I find it awfully sad
That you no longer care to know
Then I cried

Aye, then you turned around and saw me
In the golden light of your stare
I am there
