[Melanie:]
I used to think that I could not go on
 And life was nothing but an awful song
 But now I know the meaning of true love
 I'm leaning on the everlasting arms.
 If I can see it then I can do it.

[Chorus:]
 I believe I can fly
 I believe I can touch the sky
 I think about it every night and day
 Spread my wings and fly away.
 I believe I can soar,
 I see me running through that open door,
 I believe I can fly.
 I believe I can fly.
 I believe I can fly.

[R. Kelly:]
 If I can see it then I can be it
 If I just believe it there's nothing to it

[Together:]
 I believe I can fly
 I believe I can touch the sky,
 I think about it every night and day,
 Spread my wings and fly away.
 I believe I can soar
 I see me running through that open door
 I believe I can fly.
 I believe I can fly.
 I believe I can fly.

[R. Kelly:] You can fly!

[Melanie:] With you on my side i believe i can fly!
