lyrics

Saw a bird outside my window yesterday, and
she was trying to help her baby on his way
there’s something in the way she pushed him out
that told me it’s the struggle that living’s all about

And he will fly, he will fly
he will find his own direction in the sky
he will sail upon the wind where no one’s ever been
he will fly

The price I’ve always paid for being free
is the loneliness that grows inside of me
there’s a long and desperate road that takes me home
and it’s the only way that gets me there from the places that I roam

And I will fly, I will fly
I will make my own direction in the sky
I will sail upon the wind where no one’s ever been
I will fly

There’s a younger generation on the way,
and they will change the rules before they start to play
how can you keep love and loneliness apart
when there’s a hundred million children knocking on the doorway to your heart?

And they will fly, they will fly
they will make their own direction in the sky
they will sail upon the wind where no one’s ever been
they will fly
we can fly…
