Once I flew And it made my fingertips sing I was more like a God than a King Now I can't believe that was true Once I flew Though you don't believe me I know You look where I'm standing now You can't believe I left the ground. Look up to the bright blue sky Can't you feel life passing by If you could wouldn't you Try to soar over everything? All the pain this world can bring Once I flew now I've lost my wings Now I'm down here with you Now I'm down here with you Once I flew And the angels were my friends They would grant me every whim Now I can't believe that was true Once I flew Though it's easy to forget I don't seem to have managed yet. And I don't think I ever will Look up to the bright blue sky Can't you feel the life passing by?
