lyrics

If I Could Fly Away

If I could fly away from here you know I would
Not hesitate
I'm going nowhere fast
Don't know how much longer I can last

If I could grow myself some wings you know I'd fly
Away from here
I've got to get away
Don't think I can stand another day

I could sail over the walls and none would be too tall for me
I could have both up and down, more than I've got here on the ground

If I could jump up off the ground and not come down I'd be so free
I don't think I'd come down
Until I'd been half a world around

If I could fall into the wind and ride away I'd pack my bags
And nothing you could say
Could keep me here another day

I could rise above the gray, I'd never have a rainy day
Wherever I might choose to be, I'd set right down and live for free

Like a bird I'd take off, leave this senseless world behind
Once in the air I'd look down to where I was and wonder why
Wonder why

If I could fly away from here you know I would
Not hesitate
I'm going nowhere fast
Don't know how much longer I can last

If I could grow myself some wings you know I'd fly
Away from here
And nothing you could say
Could keep me here another day
