I really wanted to change I just didn't know how
To make my life re-arrange using all I knew now
I put the hose on the fire, the fire of my rage
I let the rain fall on the desert to wash away my pain
And then I flew for forty days and forty nights
Forty days and forty nights,
Forty days and forty nights Before I came down
I gathered strenght and climbed a tree highest one that I could find
You know from up there I could see everything every one I left behind
All at once I started to fly I made a mighty flapping sound
So many friends up in the sky I never looked down
And then I flew for forty days and forty nights
Forty days and forty nights,
Forty days and forty nights Before I came down
And only later did I realize why
So much later did I know my mission
And when I did I started to cry
It was you I was missing
And then I flew for forty days and forty nights
Forty days and forty nights,
Forty days and forty nights Before I came down
I really wanted to change I just didn't know how
