Lyrics

There's too many people Tellin' too many lies I'm gonna have to build them A city in the sky Where I can fly away, yeah A city so high Won't have it no other way, no I sure ain't gonna miss The city I leave behind Drag out the drag It's blowin' my mind away There's been too many children With tears in their eyes We're gonna build them A city in the sky Where they can fly away A city so high Won't have it no other way They sure ain't gonna miss The city they leave behind Drag out the drag It's blowin' their minds away It's been quite a fine morning It's been quite a fine day What a feelin' just knowin' I won't have find a way, no To California, hmm, tomorrow morning, oh I just don't believe L.A., no I'm gonna miss the city I leave behind Drag out the drag It's blowin' my mind away, y'all Good idea Gotta get away I wonder what it is That somethin' make me Wanna fly away Fly, fly away Just make me fly away Fly, fly away I'll fly away Fly, fly away I'll fly away I'll fly away Fly, fly away I'll fly away I'll fly away I can't stand it I can't stand it I wanna fly away I wanna fly away To the city in the sky
