Fly Above The Sky

"Fly Above The Sky" —Zachary, 13

(For Astronaut Scott Parazynski)

What is it like to be a doctor, and help the human race?
What is it like to be an astronaut, and walk around in space?
What is it like to dive in the deep, explore the exotic sea?
I want to know, because these are my dreams

To soar like an eagle
To swim with the fish
To scale the highest peaks

When you fly above the sky

When you're high above the clouds
Floating weightless with no worry
You have made your country proud

When you fly above the sky

Would you make a wish for me
And children all around the world
To follow their dreams?

Some may call you a doctor

An astronaut or pilot
But I call you a hero
If they build it, you can fly it

When you study about disease

My suffering's put at ease
When you dive into the deepest sea
My imagination is set free

All that you've done

And all you hope to do
You've carried me along with you

When you fly above the sky
When you're high above the clouds

Floating weightless with no worry
You have made your country proud

When you fly above the sky
Would you make a wish for me

And children all around the world
To follow their dreams?

When I read all about you and all that you do
My feet are on the mountain top

My eyes see the heavens
And the creatures of the sea

When you fly above the sky
When you're high above the clouds

Floating weightless with no worry
You have made your country proud

When you fly above the sky
Would you make a wish for me

And children all around the world
To follow our dreams?

Thank you so much for taking purple songs into space with you. We really appreciate it. Lets our dreams soar!
