Night Flying

Night Flying Have you ever flown at night In your dreams Jump up to fly, so easy it seems Climb higher and higher, touching the stars Circle the Earth, the Moon Jupiter, and Mars You turn right or left with a tilt of your hands Travel the world seeing beautiful lands Take off and fly dip, and climb You never run out of fuel; just run out of time Fly over mountains or wet your face in the sea Passing through the stars, that's where I'll be Dip through the clouds, some dark as night Fly higher and higher till Earth's out of sight Travel different speeds that you decide Like real airplanes, you tilt, or you glide Eventually, the star flight lands in your airport bed Time to capture your pillow and bury your head You'll never know when your next flight might be When your dream of flying is so hard to believe So off we go into airborne plans tonight To have visions again of such fantastic flights.
