Lyrics to Flying Dreams

Flying dreams, I'm fleeing the scene

Sitting over a shaky wing

Or running down a corridor

With baggage I've never seen before

Trying to make a plane in my flying dream



Flying dreams, I've got my own wings now

And I'm passing through a patch of clouds

The birds avoid me they know it's wrong

To try and fly above where you belong

But the air tastes so very clean

Up here in my flying dream



Sometimes I call you on the phone

From up inside a plane alone

And I ask you if your love can rise

Because I'm lost and terribly high

"If you regret your destination," you say

"make it up in your imagination

It doesn't have to be this way

Why don't you try a flying dream

In which you stay?"



Flying dreams can turn ugly too

The plane nosedives out of the blue

And spirals out of control

When everything was so still before

That's the risk you take when you're not awake

In your flying dreams



Flying dreams, I'm up here again

Looking for a place to land

I can see the cities down on their grids

The cars move in patterns just like the birds

Everything has its place it seems

In my flying dreams
