Lyrics

It has always been in the back of my mind
Dreaming about going through the corners of time
I always wanted to fly
In strange machines

I wanna do centuries in a lifetime
And feel it with my hands
Touch the World War II and Cleopatra
Flying

Could it be that my dream would come true?
Building a machine that would actually do
What I want it to do

Russian Revolution, let's do that in one day
Beethoven and Gershwin, I think that would be okay
More than anything I wanna fly
In strange machines

I wanna do centuries in a lifetime
And see it with my eyes
Watch Jesus rise if he ever did
Flying

Disconcerting to see the sun arc in less than a minute
To see a snail race by
My flowers flinging wide their petals to embrace the new day

I wanna do centuries in a lifetime
And feel it with my hands
Touch the Renaissance and Chaka Khan
Flying
