Oh how nice it would be
to fly like a bird
to join the force of the wind
and fly in the rain
all my troubles will leave
the clouds will hold them for me
all the grey ones that you can see
are marks i have left for another day
they are an imitation of
what you’ve left on my soul
i had nowhere to run but
now i have somewhere to go

when i wanna cry
all i have to do is
spread my wings and fly
i’m joining the clouds once again
the water that will fall
are tears i’ll be crying
so when you need me to come back
look up and just smile
i’ll spread my wings once again and
hold you in my arms

it looks so nice to fly like a bird
to fly very far
i have nowhere to go
nowhere to hide
let me close my eyes and
live this dream of mine
please don’t take it away
it’s the only thing that
helps me get through each day
leave your selfish minds
drown them and walk away
pick me up and mend me
hold my heart and save it
heaven’t you had enough?
all i asked for is love and
you gave me so many blows
i had nowhere to run but
now i have somewhere to go

when i wanna cry
all i have to do is
spread my wings and fly
i’m joining the clouds once again
the water that will fall
are tears i’ll be crying
so when you need me to come back
don’t bother looking up
‘cos i don’t wanna come back
to your arms ever again

you broke me everyday
now you’re pleading for my trust
step into my shoes and feel
what i feel and am feeling
it’s only when i leave that
you will realise what you have lost

you stole it and
broke my dream of flying
you hate it when
you see me smiling
you’ve drained me and killed me
my eyes refuse to water
my wings refuse to fly
i cannot take this pain any longer
just watch me jump and fall
somewhere i long to be
now i don’t have to run or hide
and i don’t have to live this dream of mine
anymore…

oh how nice it would be
to fly like a bird
to join the force of the wind
and fly in the rain…
