If I Could Only Fly

Verse 1:

This morning as I watched a bird

Just spread its wings and fly

It was then a thought came over me

And I wondered why can't I?

Oh why, oh why can't I?

Verse 2:

If I could only fly, you see

A lot of problems would be gone

When you think of just how much

I'd save on shoes alone

If I could only fly

Verse 3:

I would never tear my clothes

Climbing in and out of trees

If I could only fly, I'd never crawl

Or wear holes in my knees

If I could only fly

Verse 4:

How I'd love to spread my wings

And streak across the sky

I'd be off to see the world

If I could only fly

But I'd always come right back
