  • A Piece of Sky

    http://youtube.com/v/Rt_jjHAQoJU

    i watched Yentl tonight, for the first time in who knows how long. and it’s perfect. especially now that i’m preparing to go on my own “voyage”, as it were.

    Tell me where
    Where is it written
    What is it I meant to be?
    That I can’t dare…
    It all began the day I found..
    That from my window I could only see
    A piece of sky.
    I stepped outside and looked around.
    I never dreamed it was so wide
    Or even half as high.
    The time had come
    (Papa, can you hear me?)
    To try my wings
    (Papa, are you near me?)
    And even thought it seemed at any moment I could fall,
    I felt the most,
    (Papa, can you see me?)
    Amazing things,
    (Can you understand me?)
    The things you can’t imagine
    if you’ve never flown at all.
    Though it’s safer to stay on the ground,
    Sometimes where danger lies
    There the sweetest of pleasures are found.
    No matter where I go,
    There’ll be memories that tug at my sleeve,
    But there will also be
    More to question, yet more to believe..
    Oh tell me where?
    Where is the someone who will turn and look at me?
    And want to share
    My ev’ry sweet-imagined possibility?
    The more I live – the more I learn.
    The more I learn – the more I realize
    The less I know.
    Each step I take –
    (Papa, I’ve a voice now!)Each page I turn –
    (Papa, I’ve a choice now!)Each mile I travel only means
    The more I have to go.
    What’s wrong with wanting more?
    If you can fly – then soar!
    With all there is – why settle for
    just a piece of sky?
    Papa, I can hear you…
    Papa, I can see you…
    Papa, I can feel you…
    Papa, watch me fly!

    why settle for just a piece of sky ;0)
