Tom Petty : Learning to Fly : Into the Great Wide Open (1991)

Inspired by Mr Dayglo and his flying abilities… thanks for the guidance! Figured my backyard on relatively soft grass would be a good place for a first lesson!

Snag a listen to this classic Tom Petty…

…and that concludes impromptu widescreen week!

=========================================================================

Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up, the world got still

I’m learning to fly, but I ain’t got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing

Well the good ol’ days may not return
And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn

I’m learning to fly, but I ain’t got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing

Well some say life will beat you down
Break your heart, steal your crown
So I’ve started out, for God knows where
I guess I’ll know when I get there

I’m learning to fly, around the clouds,
But what goes up must come down

I’m learning to fly, but I ain’t got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing

(Repeat Chorus)
