flying dreams

if you could walk

if you could talk

where would you go

what would you say to me?

i love the sound of you movin' around

laughin' and dreamin' next to me

but i'll never know what you see

i hope it's a flying dream

over fields

houses and hills

over hospitals

shopping malls and ravines

over walls

transcending it all

love finds itself right where it longs to be

and i'll never know what you see

i hope it's a flying dream

you center me

you help me to see

what is important and what i should just let be

to blow away on garbage day

with candy rappers and cigarette packages

through the dark days

the hard careens

longing for flying dreams

there's no more leaves

the raindrops freeze

and glisten like teardrops in the the trees

sink or swim

still sinking in

i've been swimming deep in the blues these days

ever since fate intervened

and took away my flying dreams

flying dreams

flying dreams
