Finally he planned the step, leaving all behind
Leaving home and well-known ground
For a new world to be found
'Cause it has been his dearest wish

Since he was young
To travel around the world, to be fancy-free
But every time he set a date
There was a little something to care about

So he never left, don't look at me that way
I cannot tell why you're still messing up
It is a miracle that you will fail
When a dream comes true

And every time you fall
In the first moment you think you can fly
But you are not a bird
And life is catching up as you know

Not too young and so in love and perfectly close
But yet no answer in her heart
When he came to propose
So she said she needed time

But as she hesitated, he knew so well
Time was not his friend
Time went by without a word
And he was not the man to ask again

Eventually he left, don't look at me that way
I cannot tell why you're still messing up
It is a miracle that you will fail
When a dream comes true

And every time you fall
In the first moment you think you can fly
But you are not a bird
And life is catching up as you know

You're Mr. Significant, always on the run
Busy as a man can be, never time for your son
Your absence was a heavy weight
No one can bear a lifetime of ignorance

So he turned away
And one day you came to see that he grew up
And you missed the biggest part
A stranger to his world

So my friend, you're fallible
Sometimes up and sometimes down

The spiteful wheel of Fortuna
Don't give up it's not your fault
Sometimes up and sometimes down
The spiteful wheel of Fortuna

Don't look at me that way
I cannot tell why you're still messing up
It is a miracle that you will fail
When a dream comes true

And every time you fall
In the first moment you think you can fly
But you are not a bird
And life is catching up as you know

Don't look at me that way
I cannot tell why you're still messing up
It is a miracle that you will fail
When a dream comes true

And every time you fall
In the first moment you think you can fly
But you are not a bird
And life is catching up
