Fly Away
Alien Force Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When the sun is taking over and the darkness takes away
When the light is over the sea
Then I close my eyes and reach out my hands
I'm dreaming and flying away

Dreaming of freedom
Take my words
Speak for myself
'Cause I can

Dreaming of freedom
Take my words
Speak for myself
'Cause I can

When I see the birds fly across the light
It gives me silence and peace
When the sun is going down
And light fades away
I'm dreaming and flying away

Dreaming of freedom
Take my words
Speak for myself
'Cause I can

Dreaming of freedom
Take my words
Speak for myself
'Cause I can

When the sun is taking over and the darkness takes away
When the light is over the sea
Then I close my eyes and reach out my hands
I'm dreaming and flying away

Dreaming of freedom
Take my words
Speak for myself
'Cause I can

Dreaming of freedom
Take my words




Speak for myself
'Cause I can
