On a Wing and a Prayer
Living on Courage: A Journey Through Struggle and Strength
Lyrics
You're strong like a motor car engine
You possess strength comparable to a motor car engine.
Underneath the willow tree
Beneath the willow tree.
I sold my blankets down the street
I exchanged/sold my blankets along the street.
And kept up in the warm cave
And stayed protected in the warm cave.
From the days where we would burn
From the days when we used to burn.
I sold my blankets down the street
I exchanged/sold my blankets along the street.
I was aware
I was conscious/aware.
I was a war
I was engaged in a conflict/war.
You were living on a wing and a prayer
You were surviving in extremely challenging circumstances.
I was singing to myself in my head
I was singing silently to myself in my mind.
I was aware
I was conscious/aware.
I was a war
I was engaged in a conflict/war.
You were living on a wing and a prayer
You were surviving in extremely challenging circumstances.
I was singing to myself in my head
I was singing silently to myself in my mind.
You're brave like an eagle in the clouds
You display bravery similar to an eagle soaring in the clouds.
I was upstairs when I was young
I was on an upper level when I was young.
I didn't have a door
I did not have a door.
I didn't have a door to exit
I lacked an exit door.
I didn't have a door to exit
-I was aware
I was conscious/aware.
I was a war
I was engaged in a conflict/war.
You were living on a wing and a prayer
You were surviving in extremely challenging circumstances.
I was singing to myself in my head
I was singing silently to myself in my mind.
