I Wish I Could Fly
Halfway through the night,
I wake up in a dream;
Echoes in my head
Make every whisper turn into a scream.
I dreamed I could fly
Out in the blue, over this town,
Following you over the trees,
Subways and cars.
I'd try to find out
Who you really are.
In the middle of the night,
Cool sweating in my bed,
Got the windows open wide,
Thinking about all the things you said.
I wish I could fly
Out in the blue, over this town
Following you I'd fly over rooftops,
The great boulevards, to try to find out
Who you really are
I wish I could fly now.
I wish I could fly
Around and around
Over this town, the dirt on the ground.
I'd follow your course
Of doors left ajar.
To try to find out
Who you really are.
--Roxette, "I Wish I Could Fly"
