Jason Robert Brown
Flying Home
[MAN 1]
The angels called you
To leave this land
My work is finished
My work is finished—
The angels command
I'll come to join you
Reach out your hand

And I'll be flying home
Straight into your arms
And I'll be flying home
Carry me on, carry me on
And I'm flying home

The angels call me
To shut the door
We're almost touching
We're almost touching
Just one minute more
I'll hear you call me
Just like before

And I'll be flying home
Straight into your arms
And I'll be flying home
[MAN 1 & ESNEMBLE]
