He'd never dared To climb up the stairs To go high into the sky And watch the birds fly He knew all too well That if he'd fall He'd break his heart And lose it all So he decided to stay Firm on the ground And watch those who dared Rush up without a frown

Height of happiness
He'd never dared To climb up the stairs To go high into the sky And watch the birds fly He knew all too well That if he'd fall He'd break his heart And lose it all So he decided to stay Firm on the ground And watch those who dared Rush up without a frown
Many people climb up and fall off the stairs of happiness. He is afraid of the height, of the fall. So, he sits at the bottom and watch his loved one go higher and leave him. All he hopes for is when they do fall, he would be there to catch them.
