Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Flock of birds
Hovering above
Just a flock of birds
That's how you think of love
[Verse 2]
And I always
Look up to the sky
Pray before the dawn
'Cause they fly always
Sometimes they arrive
Sometimes they are gone
They fly on
[Verse 3]
A flock of birds
Hovering above
Into smoke I'm turned
And rise, following 'em up
[Verse 4]
Still I always
Look up to the sky
Pray before the dawn
'Cause they fly away
One minute they arrive
Next you know they're gone
They fly on
[Verse 5]
They fly on
Oh, oh-oh-oh, so fly on
Ride through
Maybe one day
I'd fly next to you
[Verse 6]
And fly on
And ride through
Maybe one day
I come fly with you
[Verse 7]
Fly on
Fly on
Fly on
