We will fly way up high Where the cold wind blows Or in the sun laughing having fun With lot of people that she knows
And if the situation should keep us separated You know the world won't fall apart And you will free the beautiful bird That's caught inside your heart
Can't you hear her? Oh, she cries so loud Casts her wild note Over water and cloud
That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin' We'll be riding on the horses, yeah Way up in the sky, little darlin' If you fall I'll pick you up, pick you up
You will grow and until you go I'll be right there by your side And even then whisper the wind And she will carry up your ride
I hear all the people of the world In one bird's lonely cry See them trying every way they know how To make their spirit fly
Can't you see him? He's down on the ground He has a broken wing Looking all around
That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin' You go riding on the horses, yeah Way up in the sky, little darlin' If you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up
That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin' You go riding on the horses, yeah Way up in the sky, little darlin' If you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up If you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up If you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up
I'll pick you up darlin' if you fall Don't worry 'bout a thing little girl Because I was young myself not so long ago When I was young, when I was young Oh, oh, an' when I was young, I was a wild, wild one
