Life's calling you son, time to travel on
  To see the world, and to learn just how to sing your song
  But as you go, though we love you so
  And may the road before you be a joyous one
  
  Right from the start, sing 'em from the heart
  Let every song be part of who and where you are
  And if late at night, you're feeling all alone
  Then let music be the wings to carry you back home
  
  But if I know you, there's nothing you can't do
  You always do your best when you have things to prove
  Far as I can see, you're better man than me
  So trust your instincts and let music set you free
  
  And remember this, music is a gift
  It'll be a friend through thick and thin, you can count on this
  And if later on, you're feeling all alone
  Then let music be the wings to carry you back home
  
  Know you'll get homesick, and you'll want to quit
  And sometimes you'll feel like a stranger that just doesn't fit
  That's when you'll know, how your song should go
  When you need it most the words and music flow
  
  And you'll do just fine and if you give it time
  Drop a line to say hello to all the friends back home
  But if late at night, you're feeling all alone
  Let your music be the wings to carry you back home
  Yeah, let music be the wings to carry you back home
  
  That will take you through it all
