Why Can't I? lyrics

I was down by the water And I was so scared So frightened by the crashing waves And you were right there beside me And you were so prepared, so unafraid You were laughing in the rain Why can't we be each other's wings? Carrying each other away from unfortunate things We were there when it mattered And that is all we need to carry us away So why can't we fly? Why can't we fly away from uncertainties? Why can't we fly? Why can't I? You always knew what you needed And I was so unsure It shook the ground I walked upon So understandingly, you stepped away To give me a little time to look around, catch my breath I don't want to walk alone I want to walk together with you now Why can't we be each other's wings? Carrying each other away from unfortunate things We were there when it mattered And that is all we need to carry us away So why can't we fly? Why can't we fly away from uncertainties? Why can't we fly? Why can't I? Why can't I? I've been roaming for so long It's been a while since these clouds have been lifted Why can't I leave it all behind? Just rise above it all And fly I was down by the water And I was so scared
