if i could fly

stone by the river

got no wind in my sail

no revolutions in my soul

hey

revelation's just

a moment away

soon i'm gonna be old

soon you're gonna be old

remember love is not

something you can keep

it just takes the wind

to blow it away

you look so ugly

as you lie there asleep

boy you're pretty today

so pretty today

when i was born they poisoned my mind

they told me to fight but i'm not that kind

they said i was meek but i did not mind

it's a case of the weak chasing the blind

i see the stars have spelt

your name in the sky

i wrote it too down

here in the sand

when i first met you

you stirred nothing at all

see the cards in your hand

see the cards in your hand

and

oh if i could fly

oh if i could fly

oh if i could fly

i'd take to the sky

i feel so special when

i'm making you cry

i regret the things

i throw in your face

this drug will kill you darling

this is no lie

this dragon we chase

this dragon we chase

and

oh if i could fly

oh if i could fly

oh if i could fly

i'd take to the sky
