Touch the Sky Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When the cold wind is a-calling
And the sky is clear and bright
Misty mountains sing and beckon
Lead me out into the light

[Chorus]
I will ride, I will fly
Chase the wind and touch the sky
I will fly
Chase the wind and touch the sky

[Post-Chorus]
Na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na

[Verse 2]
Where dark woods hide secrets
And mountains are fierce and bold
Deep waters hold reflections
Of times lost long ago
I will hear their every story
Take hold of my own dream
Be as strong as the seas are stormy
And proud as an eagle's scream

[Chorus]
I will ride, I will fly
Chase the wind and touch the sky
I will fly
Chase the wind and touch the sky

[Post-Chorus]
Na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na

[Outro]
And touch the sky
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na
Chase the wind, chase the wind
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na
Touch the sky
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na
