Tropic Thunder

Wings That Take You Higher — Looking down below, I wonder what I’ll see. I wonder who would know if life is but a dream. I’ll stay up in the sky, flying with my angels.

The angels always lead and guide me towards the light and set me on a path whenever I take flight. So, flying with these angels, I do right from my heart and love with happiness until the end right from the start.
