I almost felt you touchin' me just now
I wish I knew which way to turn and go
I feel so good and I feel so bad
Wonder what I oughta do
If I could only fly
If I could only fly
I'd bid this place goodbye
To come and be with you
But I can hardly stand
Got nowhere to run
Another sinkin' sun
One more lonely night
The wind keeps blowin' somewhere every day
They tell me things get better somewhere up the way
Just dismal thinkin' on a dismal day
Sad songs for us to bear
(D) (G) (A) (D) x2
You know sometimes I write happy songs
But then sometimes little things are wrong
You know I wish they all could make you smile
Tomorrow maybe we can get away
I'm coming home soon and I want to stay
I wish you could come with me when I go again
If I could only fly
If I could only fly
I'd bid this place goodbye
To come and be with you
But I can hardly stand
Got nowhere to run
Another sinkin' sun
One more lonely night
If I could only fly
If You could only fly
If we could only fly
There'd be no more lonely nights
