Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I was a wing in heaven blue

Soared on the ocean, soared over Spain

And I was free, needed nobody

It was beautiful

It was beautiful

[Verse 2]

I was a pawn, didn't have a move

Didn't have nowhere that I could go

But I was free, and I needed nobody

It was beautiful

It was beautiful

[Verse 3]

And if there's one thing could do for you

You'd be a wing in heaven blue

[Verse 4]

I was a vision in another eye

And they saw nothin', no future at all

Yet I was free, I needed nobody

It was beautiful

It was beautiful

[Verse 5]

And if there's one thing could do for you

You'd be a wing in heaven blue

[Verse 6]

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

[Verse 7]

And if there's one thing could do for you

You'd be a wing in heaven blue

And if there's one thing could do for you

You'd be a wing in heaven blue

Ah, ah
