I Dreamed....9) Birds In Flight

I've been awakened in the night; I've just been soaring To the height of heights; You see it's one of those nights, And my wings aren't taking flight! Ooh, how I want to soar, And it's only my mind that's soaring! O please wait for me; For over a thousand I see... They're dipping and diving All over the sky And I'm still lying On my back and could cry! O birds of the air, This isn't fair! Give me your wings For mine won't fly, It's one of those things And now I think I know why; You see it's only the birds who were meant to fly. So goodbye, goodbye Enjoy the sky While I idely stand by!
