Lyrics
[Intro]
Ah-oh
Oh, oh
Ah, yeah
[Verse 1]
You see the two black birds flying
Flying high just to be together
When we face the music, it might help you to the other side of a great divide
Fly together
I've asked the grand master, "Why?"
Asked him why, life feels so hard sometimes
You got the muse, the music, sweet soul music
To reignite your soul divide, to reignite your soul
[Chorus]
'Cause life is more
More than a love song
It's more than a fantasy
More than a little bit
This life is more than a dream, y'all
It's more than a fantasy
More than a little bit
[Bridge]
So take your time, and realize, and fly
[Verse 2]
I hear the two blue birds sing that song
Dee dee diddly, di-di-diddly, yeah
My respects to the grand master for the lines
Such a pretty thing how the melody abides
[Chorus]
But life is more
More than a love song
It's more than a fantasy
More than a little bit
This life is more than a dream, y'all
It's more than a fantasy
More than a little bit
This life is more
More than a love song
It's more than a fantasy
More than a little bit
[Chorus]
I'm through the door now
More than a dream, y'all
See the sun shine
It's more than a fantasy
More than a little bit
[Bridge]
I'm through the door
We know life is more
More than pretty things or singing melodies
Oh, life is more
Way more, oh yeah, way more
[Outro]
Why when the thunder sounds and you see the lightning almost touch the ground
You hear a voice sometimes? My inner child sings
Fly together
Fly together
But life feels so hard sometimes and you start to lose your mind, just grab your sister's hand
Fly together
Black Pumas show them how
The blue birds, fly together
Fly together, fly together
Fly together, fly together
Fly together, fly together
Fly together
[Outro]
Help me sing a song and fly
Fly together, fly together
Touch that sky, fly together
Fly together, fly together
Fly together, fly together
[Outro]
Fly together, fly together
Fly together, fly together
Fly together, fly together
Fly together, fly together
Fly together, fly together
Fly together, fly together
Fly together, fly together
