I want to Fly

I Want To Fly

I want to fly.
To be up with the morning light.
To see things beyond my own sight.

I want to fly.
To soar with the angels.
Just listen to the church bells.

I want to fly.
To have my own set of wings.
Oh, just listen to them sing.

I want to fly.
To be way up high in the sky,
and come down with a thankful sigh.

I want to fly.
To be places I've never been,
and see things I've never seen.

I want to fly.
I want to be an angel, just like them.
To be oh such a precious gem.

I want to fly.
I want to be an angel with wings to flaunt.
But people don't always get what they want.

I want to fly.
But that won't happen until the day I die.
So for now I'll just sit here 'til the days go by.
