Bua - The Boy Who Learned to Fly Lyrics

Open this story book, do you recognise that face?
That boy is your grandfather, when he was just your age

He flew above this world, on a ladybug he saved
And he told me this same story, when I was just your age

That once upon a time, the boy who learned to fly, saw the world from so very high
He learned many things, but felt the pain it brings
To see his father without wings
When he cried for the first time

When you were a baby, you couldn't tie your shoes
But now you are ten years old and you should know the truth

That once upon a time you will learn to fly and see the world from so, very high
You'll learn many things, but feel the pain it brings
To see your loved ones without wings
When they cry for the first time

Oooh, I love you
Oooh, remember that I do
Oooh, please don't cry
When I won't, be here, to dry your eyes

This world is not what it should be, but there's beauty if you try
You will grow into a man, and it's okay to cry
