Lyrics

All clear
Come on
Peter, can you really fly?
I'll teach you
Oh, how lovely to fly!
I'll teach you how to jump on the wind's back
And away we'll go! (Oh)
Wendy
When you're sleeping in your silly bed
You might be flying about with me
Saying funny things to the stars
How do you do it?
You just think lovely, wonderful thoughts
And up you'll go!
Oh, how sweet!
I'm sweet, I'm sweet
I'm flying (flying, flying, flying)
Look at me, way up high
Suddenly, here am I
I'm flying
I'm flying (flying, flying, flying)
I can soar, I can weave
And what's more
I'm not even trying
High up and as light as I can be
I must be a sight lovely to see (oh, yes, you are)
I'm flying (flying, flying, flying)
Nothing will stop me now
Higher still, look at how
I can zoom around
Way above the ground
I'm flying
I fly and I'm all over the place
You try and you fall flat on your face
I'm flying (flying, flying, flying)
Over bed, over chair
Duck your head, clear the air
Oh, what lovely fun
Watch me, everyone
Take a look at me and see
How easily it's done
I'm flying!
Oh teach us, Peter! Please teach us!
First, I must blow the fairy dust on you
Now think lovely thoughts
Think lovely thoughts
Think lovely thoughts
Fishing! Hopscotch! Candy!
Picnics! Summer! Candy!
Sailing! Flowers! Candy!
Lovelier thoughts, Michael
Christmas?
Flying (flying)
Like an owl, like a bat
On the prowl, it's so satisfying
I'm whizzing (whizzing, whizzing, flying)
Through a cloud, past a star
I'm so proud, look how far I've risen
High over the moon, higher I fly (higher, higher, higher)
Bye, old Mr. Moon, bid me goodbye (goodbye!)
I'm flying (flying, flying, whizzing)
Heading far out of sight
Second star to the right
Now the way is clear (whoa)
Neverland is near (whoa)
Follow all the air, 'cause I'm about to disappear
I'm flying!
