From warm bed, to cold floor
Outside the sun is rising
Quick shower, it's quarter past
And she must leave before the hour is nine.
Barely makes the bus on time,
Sits there by herself and feels like crying.
She is ready, she is ready for True North
She must hold it steady, hold it steady
And set her course.
She must lift her face to the skies,
Tear the veil from her eyes
And learn to fly, learn to fly.
Learn to fly, learn to fly.
Another day to stumble forward.
Does the paycheck justify the time?
Dreams are only in her imagination
Real life, more frustration than fine.
Home again, exhausting day
She wonders how it ever got this way.
Now, she is ready, she is ready for True North
And if she holds it steady, holds it steady
She'll find the source.
As she lifts her face to the sky
She will clear the clouds from her eyes
And learn to fly, learn to fly
Learn to fly, learn to fly.
She is seeking illumination,
A new direction, an inspiration.
She's just like me, she's just like you,
She's on the verge of breaking through!
No more excuses, no more crying
She feels like she's almost flying!
She is ready, she is ready for True North
And if she holds it steady, holds it steady
She's right on course!
She is strong, determined and wise,
See the light of hope in her eyes!
She is ready to fly, ready to fly!
She is ready to fly, ready to fly!
