Well I started out
Down a dirty road
Started out
All alone
And the sun went down
As I crossed the hill
The town lit up
The world got still

I’m learning to fly
But I ain’t got wings
Coming down
Is the hardest thing

Well the good old days
May not return
And the rocks might melt
And the sea may burn

I’m learning to fly
But I ain’t got wings
Coming down
Is the hardest thing

Well some say life
Will beat you down
Break your heart
Steal your crown
So I started out
For God knows where
But I guess I’ll know
When I get there

I’m learning to fly
Around the clouds
But what goes up
Must come down

I’m learning to fly
But I ain’t got wings
Coming down
Is the hardest thing

I’m learning to fly.

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

 

Saint Stephen with a Rose
In and out of the garden he goes
Country garden in the wind and the rain
Wherever he goes the people all complain.

Stephen prospered in his time
Well he may and he may decline
Did it matter, does it now?
Stephen would answer if he only knew how.

Wishing well with a golden bell
Bucket hanging clear to hell
Hell halfway twixt now and then
Stephen fill it up and lower down and lower down again.

Lady finger, dipped in moonlight
Writing What for? across the morning sky
Sunlight splatters dawn with answers
Darkness shrugs and bids the day goodbye

Speeding arrow, sharp and narrow
What a lot of fleeting matters you have spurned
Several seasons with their treasons
Wrap the babe in scarlet colors--call it your own.

Did he doubt or did he try?
Answers aplenty in the bye and bye
Talk about your plenty, talk about your ills
One man gathers what another man spills.

Saint Stephen will remain
All he's lost he shall regain
Seashore washed by the suds and foam
Been here so long--he's got to calling it home.

Fortune comes a crawlin'
Calliope woman
Spinning that curious sense of your own
Can you answer?

Yes, I can...

But what would be the answer to the answer man?

The Grateful Dead
