Corner Of The Sky

Corner Of The Sky is Pippin’s introduction and his big “I Want” song. He tells the players about his ambitions for his soul to be free, but he hasn’t found a place he fits in yet. Arguably, it’s become one of the most famous songs from the show, performed by groups such as the Jackson 5 or sung by the likes of Dusty Springfield and Ben Platt.

Original Broadway Cast Album
Pippin	Everything has it’s season
 	Everything has it’s time
 	Show me a reason and I’ll soon show you a rhyme
 	Cats fit on the windowsill
 	Children fit in the snow
 	Why do I feel I don’t fit in anywhere I go?
 	Rivers belong where they can ramble
 	Eagles belong where they can fly
 	I’ve got to be where my spirit can run free
 	Got to find my corner
 	Of the sky…
 	Every man has his daydreams
 	Every man has his goals
 	People like the way dreams have of sticking to the soul
 	Thunder clouds have their lightning
 	Nightingales have their song
 	And don’t you see I want my life to be something more than long
 	Rivers belong where they can ramble
 	Eagles belong where they can fly
 	I’ve got to be where my spirit can run free
 	Got to find my corner
 	Of the sky…
 	So many men seem destined
 	To settle for something small
 	But I won’t rest until I know I’ll have it all
 	So don’t ask where I’m going
 	Just listen when I’m gone
 	And far away you’ll hear me singing softly to the dawn
 	Rivers belong where they can ramble
 	Eagles belong where they can fly
 	I’ve got to be where my spirit can run free
 	Got to find my corner
 	Of the sky…
