I want to go deeper
But I don't know how to swim
I want to be meeker 
But have you seen this old earth?
I want to fly higher
But these arms won't take me there
I want to be, I want to be

Maybe I could run
Maybe I could fly, to you
Do you feel the same
When all you see is
Blame in me?

And the wonder of it all is that I'm living just to fall
More in love with you 

And the wonder of it all 
Is that I'm living just to fall more in love with you 

I want to go deeper 
But is it just a stupid whim?
I want to be weaker
Be a help to the strong
I want to run faster
But this old leg won't carry me
I want to be, I want to be

Maybe I could run
Maybe I could fly, to you
Do you feel the same
When all you see is
Blame in me?

And the wonder of it all is that I'm living just to fall
More in love with you 
And the wonder of it all is that I'm living just to fall
More in love with you 
And the wonder of it all is that I'm living just to fall
More in love with you 
And the wonder of it all is that I'm living just to fall

Maybe I could run
Maybe I could follow
It's time to walk the path
Where many seem to fall
Hold me in your arms
Just like any Father would
How long do we have to wait?
How long, we're going all the way

And the wonder of it all is that I'm living just to fall
More in love with you
And the wonder of it all is that I'm living just to fall
More in love with you
The wonder of it all (and the wonder of it all)
The wonder of it all (the wonder of it all)
Is that I'm fallin', fallin', fallin'
