Listen up, somebody's calling out, they're calling out your name Someone calling in the distance, just beyond the weathervane You sit down upon the hillside, rase your eyes up to the sky And you mutter softly to yourself: "I wish that I could fly"
In your dream you can be free But you're stuck here in this spot You remember treasured days But there's some you'd rather not
As you think of things you've lost, you feel a loneliness inside Can you toss it to the wind, just cast it off and smile wide?
I want to fly away To find what I'm looking for someday If I can be strong All that I've done wrong All that I've been through That's t he feathers that I need I can feel the wind Sweeping all around If I throw my arms out, I'm leaving the ground!
Straight into the sun That's the way to fly I can make it there I have just to try All those sleepless nights There's an end in sight I can make it there If I just take flight I can fly away!
In the end, what's the point in acting tough? All of that is just a cage And I think I've had enough If I just take this step The world is gonna change Just leave it to the wind Grab it and then...!
Soar into the air All the pain you feel All the joy you feel That's what makes you strong Even when you fail That just lights the way Raise your head up high You can carry on!
Just spread our your wings No matter what they are Do it your own way Look at where you are!
Straight into the sun That's the way to fly I can fly away!
