Lyrics

Can't run away and I don't wanna fade
And I don't wanna walk it alone
Can't help but lose but I don't fault you
And I brought it all on my own

How I wish I could fly
Like a bird in the summer sky
Just a ship with a sail
In an idle wind, idle wind

Now I've got things to do and I'm telling you
And I don't wanna stay anymore
And when I was a child I'd dream on high
Now I'm old and I don't really care

I'm just trying to make somebody happy
I'm just trying to make somebody smile

How I wish I could fly
Like a bird in the summer sky
Just a ship with a sail
In an idle wind, idle wind

Why don't you sail away with me?
Love tell, did I do right by you baby?
You got to raise a little sand
Cause in the dim of night there's a glist of light
And a sense of hope in the air
Now there's one little word
That must be heard
Must be spoken like a prayer

How I wish I could fly
Like a bird in the summer sky
Just a ship with a sail
In an idle wind, idle wind
Idle wind, idle wind
