Lyrics To A Song Yet To Be Sung

 WHEN I HIT THE GROUND 
By Rick Doble
For Drew Wright
Based on the story of his accident that Drew told me
Lyrics to a song that has yet to have music

 I was flying 
 then falling 
 dream time 
 slow motion 
 and I won't come down 
 'til I hit the ground 

 Looking across the sky 
 surefooted at the top  
 I fell 
 floating by 
 each story I'd built 
 thinking of you 
 our boys 
 the stories left to tell 

 Life passed me by 
 in the blink of an eye 

 Woke up 
 heard people talking 
 could not move my lips 
 feet frozen 
 darkness all around 

 I was flying 
 then falling 
 dream time 
 slow motion 
 and I won't come down 
 'til I hit the ground 

 One day 
 I wiggled a toe 
 and tears fell 
 in the daylight and the dawn 

 I was flying 
 then falling 
 dream time 
 slow motion 
 and I won't come down 
 'til I hit the ground 

 I've seen life fly by 
 in the blink of an eye 

 I've seen it sit in a chair 
 stone still 

 Now I walk and stand and sing 
 simple things for you 
 are a blessing for me 

 I was flying 
 then falling 
 dream time 
 slow motion 
 and I won't come down 
 'til I hit the ground
