I wish that I was able to fly
Like a bird up in the blue
I'd sail with skill to your windowsill
And wait patiently for you
I'd show you around the sleepy old town
And be back before anyone stirred
Then I'd sing soft and low all the songs that you know
Sweeter than you ever heard
Me and you should be like old shoes
Never more than a step apart
Above our chins we'd wear broken-in grins
Cultivated by happy hearts
And oh! When we dance all the joy and romance
Would still wow the onlooking eyes
'Cause though we're old leather
We're much better together
Why should they be so suprised?
I wish that I was able to fly
I wish that I was able to fly see
