Out as far as I can get agCain
TGaking one more leap of faith, throwing all of my caution to the wCind

But why Amwalk when you can fCly?
Oh I'd rGather jump, I'd rather fall
I'd rDather trust, I'd rather try
Oh why cAmrawl when you can clCimb?
GEven if you're gonna hurt, eDven if you're gonna cry
Why wAmalk when you can fGly?C

With a few less tears, a few less sCcars
But I'd nGever know how flying feels
Never be here, never come this fCar
