[Verse 1]
Sunrise above the ocean
I find brings a bit of emotion
This time. Time
I look back on the path that life takes me
And someday will erase me
How much time? Time
[Verse 2]
I flash back to the old memories
Remember, it never bothered me
I could never see why
Oh, why
[Verse 3]
Back then I didn't care in the least
But now I am a wiser me
At least I try to be
But time and time again I end up here
Oh!
[Pre-Chorus 1]
We can't return to where we were
But at least I know that it's not over!
[Chorus 2]
(Oh, Oh, Oh) x3
I'm taking off and fighting gravity
(Oh, Oh, Oh)
I'm taking off and fighting gravity
[Verse 4]
Sunrise above the ocean
I find brings a bit of emotion
But time and time again I end up here
Telling me I...
[Verse 5]
Flash forward and I'm taking the leap
I'm lookin' down at all I see
And though it frightens me
I know there can't be courage without fear
Oh!
[Pre-Chorus 2]
How much more will I endure
Before I take off and the wait is over?
[Chorus 2]
(Oh, Oh, Oh)
I'm taking off and fighting gravity
(Oh, Oh, Oh)
I'm taking off and fighting gravity
Oh!
[Bridge]
How many days will go by?
How many nights?
Well I guess it doesn't matter
'Cause eventually I'll fly
And I'm gonna do it on my own!
[Verse 6]
Sunrise above the ocean
I find brings a bit of emotion
This time...
[Chorus 2]
(Oh, Oh, Oh)
I'm taking off and fighting gravity
(Oh, Oh, Oh)
I'm taking off and fighting gravity
[Elision]
(Time and time again I fight and strain and try to fly
And yet, time and time again I end up here
It's tearing me up...)
I'm taking off and fighting gravity
