"If I Could Only Fly" lyrics

Ciaran Lavery & Joshua Burnside Lyrics

"If I Could Only Fly"
(originally by Blaze Foley)

Almost felt you touching me right now
Wish I knew which way to turn and go
Feel so good, and then I feel so bad
I wonder what I ought to do

If I could only fly, if I could only fly
Leave this world behind, I'd come and be with you
But I can hardly stand, I got no where to run
Another sinking sun, one more lonely night

The wind keeps blowing, somewhere everyday
Tell me things get better, somewhere, up the way
Just dismal thinking on a dismal day
Sad songs for us to bare

You know sometimes I write happy songs
But then sometimes little things go wrong
You know I wish they all could make you smile
Tomorrow maybe we can get away
Coming home soon and I wanna stay
Wish you could come with me when I go again

If I could only fly, if I could only fly
Leave this world behind, I'd come and be with you
But I can hardly stand, I got no where to run
Another sinking 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
