[Verse 1]
We took off in my plane
Your eyes grew wide
As we soared into the sunrise
You asked me when I learned to fly
I replied
“You were watching the whole time.”
[Verse 2]
You woke up from that dream
And scratched your head
Wondering what it all meant
You told me what you saw the night before
It made me love you a little more
[Chorus]
I’m standing on your shoulders
You turned my green to golden
It still comes as a surprise
Whenever I look in your eyes
Without fail, I always find the man I want to be
I’m standing on your shoulders
[Verse 3]
I watched you bear that cross upon your back
All along an ancient path, ah
You showed me how to find my way back home
And I have never walked alone, ah
[Chorus]
I’m standing on your shoulders
You turned my green to golden
It still comes as a surprise
Whenever I look in your eyes
Without fail, I always find the man I want to be
I’m standing on your shoulders
[Bridge]
I cannot count the times you’ve caught me from the fall
I hear your voice when my back’s up against a wall
When the darkness makes me feel I’m far away from you
You gently remind me that this never was nor will be true
[Chorus]
I’m standing on your shoulders
You turned my green to golden
It still comes as a surprise
Whenever I look in your eyes
Without fail, I always find the man I want to be (in your eyes)
I’m standing on your shoulders
[Outro]
You asked me when I learned to fly
I replied
“You were watching the whole time.”
We took off in my plane
Your eyes grew wide
As we soared into the sunrise
You asked me when I learned to fly
I replied
“You were watching the whole time.”
[Verse 2]
You woke up from that dream
And scratched your head
Wondering what it all meant
You told me what you saw the night before
It made me love you a little more
[Chorus]
I’m standing on your shoulders
You turned my green to golden
It still comes as a surprise
Whenever I look in your eyes
Without fail, I always find the man I want to be
I’m standing on your shoulders
[Verse 3]
I watched you bear that cross upon your back
All along an ancient path, ah
You showed me how to find my way back home
And I have never walked alone, ah
[Chorus]
I’m standing on your shoulders
You turned my green to golden
It still comes as a surprise
Whenever I look in your eyes
Without fail, I always find the man I want to be
I’m standing on your shoulders
[Bridge]
I cannot count the times you’ve caught me from the fall
I hear your voice when my back’s up against a wall
When the darkness makes me feel I’m far away from you
You gently remind me that this never was nor will be true
[Chorus]
I’m standing on your shoulders
You turned my green to golden
It still comes as a surprise
Whenever I look in your eyes
Without fail, I always find the man I want to be (in your eyes)
I’m standing on your shoulders
[Outro]
You asked me when I learned to fly
I replied
“You were watching the whole time.”
