Kiki's Delivery Service is the story of a young witch who, in the custom of witches, moves to a new town upon turning 13. Her only magical skill being flying, she starts a delivery service. Although she meets with success in business, her social life suffers and she eventually has to fight feelings of self-doubt to regain the powers of flight she temporarily loses.

Here are the lyrics to "I'm Gonna Fly", the ending theme song from the English dub of Kiki's Delivery Service.

I'm Gonna Fly

- Sydney Forest (Ending Theme from English "Kiki's Delivery Service")

One day the whole world looks like an open page.
And you've been dancing as fast as you can,
With a smile on your face.

Then the Earth and the sky they open together,
And carry me away as light as a feather.
Chase the clouds from the ground in the big blue sky.
Don't wanna watch it all go by, so I'm gonna fly.
Higher than I ever could.

Feel the wind blow through my hair,
Feel the sun dance with the moon.
And my feet can't stay on the ground any longer,
With every leap of faith I feel a little stronger.
Wanna swing from a star in the big blue sky.
Don't wanna watch it all go by,

So I'm gonna fly.
And see for myself what it looks like from up there.
And taste the star dust in my mouth,
Chase the clouds until they disappear.

And if I can make just one life better,
Bring a smile to your face when you're under the weather,
Then I'm feelin' like I've finally found my home.
I'll plant the seeds and watch them grow.
And I'm gonna fly.

Fly. Fly. Fly.
Higher than I ever, ever could.
I'm gonna fly.
I'm gonna fly.
