If I Could Only Fly

I almost felt you touching me just now

I wish I knew which way to turn and go

I feel so good, and then I feel so bad

I wonder what ought to do

If I could only fly

If I could only fly

I'd bid this place goodbye

To come and be with you

But I can hardly stand

And I got nowhere to run

Another sinking sun

And one more lonely night

The wind keeps blowing somewhere every day

Tell me things get better somewhere up the way

Just dismal thinking on a dismal day

The sad songs for us to bear

If I could only fly

If I could only fly

I'd bid this place goodbye

To come and be with you

But I can hardly stand

And I got nowhere to run

Another sinking sun

And one more lonely night

You know, sometimes I write happy songs

Then some little thing goes wrong

And I wish they all could make you smile

Coming home soon and I want to stay

Maybe we can somehow get away

And I wish you could come with me when I go again

If I could only fly

If we could only fly

If you could only fly

There'd be no more lonely nights
