I’m Still Flying (adapted from “I’m still standing” by: Elton John)

You could never know what its like

To be a military child who packs up their life

Boxes like a water fall, just pouring in and out around the world

Building back my home, just like a bird

You’ll stay in one place, never move around

Every three years I have both feet off the ground


Did you think this bird could ever win but then

Look at me, I’m moving’ back again

Japan for a second time they said

now I’m missing half my bed

And if you need to know why I’m still packing you just fly away


Don’t you know I’m still flying better than I ever did

Packing like a true survivor, feeling like a military kid

And I’m still flying after all this time

Packing up the pieces of my life, with you on my mind

I’m still flying (yeah yeah yeah)

I’m still packin’ (yeah yeah yeah)


I was so clever

I new the life I made here was never meant to last forever

I’m on the plane like a military kid

You know, I’m still flying better than I ever did

Unpacking like a true survivor, always as bright as sunshine

And I’m still standing after all this time

Unpacking the pieces of my life

with out this strife. (yeah yeah yeah)
