Lyrics Simple Minds

Simple Minds

If I Had Wings

Open inside something about this pain

There's something about this sweet refrain

Reminds me that you're not there

And if I could care there's something about this curse

Like a needle inside a silken purse

Reminds me of all that you'd bring

If I had wings, I'm still standing

Blue mountain high

Only the fables get to fly

Without these words there's no reason why

It reminds me of all that you bring

If I had wings, would like to teach myself

If I had wings, would learn to stir myself

If I had wings, strapped inside, won't be denied

Nightmare brings all that you said

And if I could fly long time savior

That's the sinner's crime

Well, without such trust I know that I can never find

Never find, never find, never find

If I had wings

If I had wings, I'm still standing

Never find, never find, never find

Open inside something about this pain

Something about this sweet refrain

Reminds me that you're not there

And if I could care there's something about this curse

Like a needle inside a silken purse

Reminds me of all that you'd bring

If I had wings

And if I had wings

If I had wings

If I had wings
