I was stained with a role

In a day not my own

And as you walked into my life

You showed what needed to be shown

And I always knew what was right

I just didn't know that I might

Peel away and choose to see from such a different sight


And I will never see the sky the same way

And I will learn to say goodbye to yesterday

And I will never cease to fly... if held down

And I will always reach too high

'Cause i've seen 'cause i've seen twilight


I never cared never wanted never sought to see what flaunted

So on purpose so in my face

Couldn't see beyond my own place

And it was so easy to behold

What could hold but you taught me i could change

Whatever came within these shallow days


And I will never see the sky the same way

And I will learn to say goodbye to yesterday

And I will never cease to fly... if held down

And I will always reach too high

'Cause i've seen 'cause i've seen


And as the sun shines through and pushes away and pushes ahead

It fills the warmth of blue and leaves a chill instead

And I never knew that I could be so blind to all that is so real

And as illusioned eyes I see there is so much to be revealed


And I will never see the sky the same way

And I will learn to say goodbye to yesterday

And I will never cease to fly..if held down

And I will always reach too high 'cause i've seen 'cause i've seen twilight


I was stained with a role in a day not my own

And as you walked into my life you showed what needed to be shown

And I always knew what was right

I just didn't know that I might

Peel away and choose to see from such a different sight


And I will never see the sky the same way

And I will learn to say goodbye to yesterday

And I will never cease to fly... if held down

And I will always reach too high 'cause i've seen 'cause i've seen twilight
