if i had wings

open inside something about this pain

there's something about this sweet refrain

reminds me that you're not there

and if i could care there's something about this curse

like a needle inside a silken purse

reminds me of all that you'd bring

if i had wings

i'm still standing

blue mountain high

only the fables get to fly

without these words there's no reason why

it reminds me of all that you bring

if i had wings

would like to teach myself

if i had wings

would learn to stir myself

if i had wings

strapped inside won't be denied

nightmare brings

all that you said

and if i could fly

long time saviour

that's the sinner's crime

well without such trust

i know that i can never find

never find - never find - never find

if i had wings

if i had wings

i'm still standing

never find - never find - never find

open inside something about this pain

there's something about this sweet refrain

reminds me that you're not there

and if i could care there's something about this curse

like a needle inside a silken purse

reminds me of all that you'd bring

if i had wings

if i had wings

if i had wings

if i had wings

open inside something about this pain

there's something about this sweet refrain

reminds me that you're not there

and if i could care there's something about this curse

like a needle inside a silken purse

reminds me of all that you'd bring
