This song was featured in the PIXAR movie “Brave” (2012) as the opening song. It introduces the pervasive Scottish flavor used throughout the film. This song plays while Merida, the main character, displays how she doesn’t conform to gender stereotypes.
[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
