A thousand people on the street The rain is trying to drown my feet The cold bites into every bone The solemn faces pass me by A grey veneer on buried smiles A crowded train to take me home
If I close my eyes a minute See a world and then I’m in it Stand alone and grow my wings To take me high
If I could fly See the world beneath me Feel as though I’m set free Oh if I could fly
A simple smile can change a day An understanding look can say I know exactly how you feel But we have learned to build our walls So very strong and very tall For fear of what the world might steal
If I close my eyes a minute See a world and then I’m in it Stand alone and grow my wings To take me high
If I could fly See the world beneath me Feel as though I’m set free Oh if I could fly
If I could fly See the world beneath me Feel as though I’m set free Oh if I could fly
If I could fly See the world beneath me Feel as though I’m set free Oh if I could fly
