We will fly
|
Way up high
|
Where the cold wind blows
|
Or in the sun
|
Laughing having fun
|
With the people that she knows
|
And if the situation
|
Should keep us separated
|
You know the world won't fall apart
|
And you will free the beautiful bird
|
That's caught inside your heart
|
Can't you hear her ?
|
Oh she cries so loud
|
Casts her wild note
|
Over water and cloud
|
That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin'
|
We'll be riding on the horses, yeah
|
Way up in the sky, little darlin'
|
And if you fall I'll pick you up, pick you up
|
|
You will grow
|
And until you go
|
I'll be right there by your side
|
And even then
|
Whisper the wind
|
And she will carry up your ride
|
I hear all the people of the world
|
In one bird's lonely cry
|
See them trying every way they know how
|
To make their spirit fly
|
Can't you see him ?
|
He's down on the ground
|
He has a broken wing
|
Looking all around
|
|
That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin'
|
You go riding on the horses, yeah
|
Way up in the sky, little darlin'
|
And if you fall I'll pick you up, pick you up
|
Can't you hear her ?
|
Oh she cries so loud
|
Casts her wild note
|
Over water and cloud
|
I'll pick you up darlin' if you fall
|
Don't worry 'bout a thing little girl
|
Because I was young myself not so long ago
|
And when I was young
|
When I was young
|
And when I was young, oh I was a wild, wild one.
