[Verse 1]
I kept my hands so small
Kept my mouth shut tight
You said, “Not this time”
So I bit my pride
I wore that quiet name
Like a stone in my shoe
But your voice in my head
Kept pulling me through
[Pre-Chorus]
If the sky breaks open
And the old doubt falls
I’ll step to the edge
I’ll hear my own call
[Chorus]
When I see an elephant fly
(when I see it)
When I see an elephant fly
I’ll believe in me again
I’ll believe in love again
I’ll find my way again
When I see an elephant fly
[Verse 2]
I learned your last goodbye
Like a tune in the dark
Still a tiny bright flame
Kept a beat in my heart
You can call it a dream
You can call it a lie
But I’ve got this feeling
Rising up inside
[Pre-Chorus]
If the ground won’t hold me
I’ll hold my own name
One breath, one step
Then I’m back in the game
[Chorus]
When I see an elephant fly
(when I see it)
When I see an elephant fly
I’ll believe in me again
I’ll believe in love again
I’ll find my way again
When I see an elephant fly
[Bridge]
Oh, let it be strange
Let it be wild
Let the whole room turn
And look at the child
I’ve waited long enough
I’ve carried the ache
Now the impossible
Is mine to make
[Final Chorus]
When I see an elephant fly
(when I see it)
When I see an elephant fly
I’ll believe in me again
I’ll believe in love again
I’ll find my way again
When I see an elephant fly
(when I see it)
When I see an elephant fly
I’ll believe in me again
I’ll believe in love again
I’ll find my way again
When I see an elephant fly
