"Colton is a Charismatic performer who doesn't do anything that seems insincere on stage....With a soaring voice and strong pen, she is not afraid to tackle dark subjects."

Lyrics Credits
A carpenter acquaintance drew his eyes over me and pulled me aside
He said girl don't be shy it's a beautiful thing
Black formed the dots of the question marks in my eyes
He said he it's your wings girl tell me, how do they fly?

I said I am the flyer my wings take me higher than most could know
Just when I think I am stuck on the ground, off I go
With no explanation, no known destination I hear my heart say
Fly baby fly... fly baby fly

He inhaled his own breath 'til the blueprints appeared in his face
He said I'll make your wings better and faster; we could win every race
I'll just clip a little here, extend a little there, add some more weight
Change the color of your hair and I'll rig up a saddle so I can show you the way

I said I am the flyer my wings take me higher than most could know
Just when I think I am stuck on the ground, off I go
With no explanation, no known destination I hear my heart say
Fly baby fly... fly baby fly

Thank you dear sir for your input; I'm much obliged
I'll think it over... Now I've made up my mind
They ain't broke they're just fine, this design is divine
A saddles for a horse
My heart steers the coarse;
And by the way sir these wings aren't yours they're mine

I said I am the flyer my wings take me higher than most could know
Just when I think I am stuck on the ground, off I go
With no explanation, no known destination I hear my heart say
Fly baby fly... fly baby fly
