Be careful honey, she’s just a baby
Don’t try to toss her so high
Kate just laughed and let go as she reached for the sky

She said don’t worry momma I’m not afraid to fly
I’d said I’m not surprised
I always knew you had your head in the clouds
When I saw those stars in your eyes
But I’ve got to watch over you, that’s what mamma’s do
And I’ve always been afraid of heights.

That’s a big girl ride, be sure to hold tight
She had that look in her eye
Let go of my hand at six, reaching for the sky

CHORUS

When Kate turned 20 we hugged at the gate
I squeezed her hand but she couldn’t wait
Dreams were on the line and it was time
Kate just laughed and reached for the sky

She came home, that same night
Thought she must have missed her flight
But the brush of wings against my cheek
Said she came to say goodbye

She said, don’t worry momma, I’m not afraid to fly
Why do you look surprised
You always knew I had my head in the clouds
Since you put those stars in my eyes
Now I’ll watch over you, just like you taught me to
You don’t have to be afraid
Of heights
