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
