Lyrics Barenaked Ladies

Barenaked Ladies

Flying Dreams

If you could walk, if you could talk

Where would you go, what would you say to me?

I love the sound of you movin' around

Laughin' and dreamin' next to me

But I'll never know what you see

I hope it's a flying dream

Over fields, houses and hills

Over hospitals, shopping malls and ravines

Over walls, transcending it all

Love finds itself right where it longs to be

And I'll never know what you see

I hope it's a flying dream

You center me, you help me to see

What is important and what I should just let be

To blow away on garbage day

With candy rappers and cigarette packages

Through the dark days, the hard careens

Longing for flying dreams

There's no more leaves, the raindrops freeze

And glisten like teardrops in the the trees

Sink or swim, still sinking in

I've been swimming deep in the blues these days

Ever since fate intervened

And took away my flying dreams

Flying dreams

Flying dreams
