    Ready to Fly

    I’ve been trying to open the door
    To the secret of my destiny
    And every new road I think is the one
    Seems to lead right back to me

    I’ve looked for a way to be wiser
    A way to be strong
    Now I see the answer was hiding
    In me all along

    Chorus:
    And I’m ready to fly
    Over the sun
    Like a rocket to heaven
    And I’m ready to soar
    Right through the sky
    Never dreamed I’d find something to lift me so high
    I’ve always had wings
    But I wasn’t ready to fly

    Restless, hopeless, and misunderstood
    Like so many others I know
    So busy tryin’ to keep holdin’ on
    When I should’ve been letting go

    I was given the gift to find it
    The spirit inside me
    But I never really imagined
    All I could be

    Chorus:
    And I’m ready to fly
    Over the sun
    Like a rocket to heaven
    And I’m ready to soar
    Right through the sky
    Never dreamed I’d find something to lift me so high
    I’ve always had wings
    But I wasn’t ready to fly

    The answer to all of my wonder
    Was right in my hands
    Now it’s time for me to discover
    All that I am

    Chorus:
    And I’m ready to fly
    Over the sun
    Like a rocket to heaven
    And I’m ready to soar
    Right through the sky
    Never dreamed I’d find something to lift me so high
    I’ve always had wings
    But I wasn’t ready to fly

    I’ve always had wings
    Now I’m finally ready to fly

    Great lyrics! They surely resonate in me. I’ve never heard of Richard Marx, but after reading this, I’m going to make a point of looking him up.

    Richard has been around since the 80’s, I can remember his first album from Junior-Senior year in high school (showing my age). He’s really just gotten better with age, his lyrics now are much deeper than they used to be.

    I’m glad to be able to share his music here and expose more people to his wonderful-ness!

    I went to a FOCUS seminar in Chicago this past weekend and this song played over and over. I can’t tell you how this song is resonating in my head. I love the lyrics and will be looking for this very soon to purchase.

    Thanks for your great inspiration!!

    I, also attended a FOCUS seminar and was introduced to “Ready to Fly”. It is the most beautiful song; and will melt your heart. My best friend, and husband Rick told me that he had a surprise for me; he played this song and we danced like never before. This song means so much to me!
    Richard Marx you’re well on your way!

    Thanks!
