Bethany the Bat

From tree to tree
Would fly Bethany
Bethany the Bat

It was an October night
The moon was right in the sky
As all the bats flew from their homes
On a search for something unknown
They were all excited to leave
All, except Bethany
Why had never left the nest
She didn't fly out with the rest
Because she had a broken wing
From an accident last spring
And she hadn't taken to the
Sky since then

All the bats stood in line
Discussing what they had in mind
When they flew through the sky
And Bethany started to cry
As one by one, they took to the sky
And flew around so high
They called, "Bethany, don't you cry
Come join us in the night"
But Bethany cried, "No
I can not go
My wing is hurt and if I go
Down no one will know"

So Bethany sat alone, sunken like a stone
And the last gust of wind had blown
She watched her family from afar
Tt looked like they could reach a star
Then Bethany looked down
And saw out of the ground
A row of trees they drew a
Path to the edge of town
The first tree was near
She swallowed her fear
And what she did next made every
Bat begin to cheer

From tree to tree
Would fly Bethany
With a broken wing
The pain how it would sting
But she pushed through because
She knew we all would sing
From tree to tree
Would fly Bethany
With a broken wing
The pain how it would sting
But being with family meant everything
