Beyond the Sky – Judy Collins

Once there was a girl with a dream in her heart

Wild as the wind was her hope

In those far off days she could dream all she would

No one but her heart believed her hope

All she could do was to hold to her dream

Catching every rainbow’s light

Praying for the miracle to come to pass

Even on the darkest night

That she would fly beyond the sky

Beyond the stars beyond the heavens

Beyond the dawn she’d carry on

Until her dreams had all come true

Once there was a woman with stars in her eyes

Flying on the wings of her dreams

She had come so far it was hard to believe

Changed the world from what it seemed

Equal to the ones who had claimed the sky

Now she flew with them beneath the sun

But she dared a dream beyond all her dreams

She would take the helm and be the one

A nd she would fly beyond the sky

Beyond the stars beyond the heavens

Beyond the dawn she’d carry on

Until her dreams have all come true

She had led the way beyond darkness

For other dreamers who would dare the sky

She has led us to believe in dreaming

Given us the hope that we can try

Now in the grace of her dance of delight

Shining in her destiny

Here is the promise for all our hopes

Telling us we can be free And we will fly beyond the sky

Beyond the stars beyond the heavens

Beyond the dawn we’ll carry on

Until our dreams have all come true

To those who fly – we sing to you

Into the sky

Beyond the stars

We»™ll reach our dreams
