2 You Gonna fly
Keith Urban Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

One, two, three baby don't think twice
Just like that you gotta brand new life
Hop in this truck and run through the red lights

Yeah where you wanna go, baby name the town
We can go up north or head down south
Roll down the windows with the radio loud
Come on turn it up, yeah
Start living your life
On the double, leave your troubles behind
You knew we're gonna be alright

You could be a black bird
On a country street
Hiding from the world with a broken wing
But you better believe, you gonna fly with me
You could be a songbird from the New Orleans
Scared of the rain just scared to sing
But you better believe, you're gonna fly with me

Well, here we are baby in the back of my van
Sun's going down sky's turning red
Stars coming out
Baby look at you now

God know how long but its been a while
Since I heard you laugh and I'd seen that smile
Felt that kiss and I can get use to this
Baby I could get use to this

You could be a black bird
On a country street
Hiding from the world with a broken wing
But you better believe, you gonna fly with me
You could be a songbird from the New Orleans
Scared of the rain just scared to sing
But you better believe, you're gonna fly with me

You're gonna fly
You're gonna fly

You could be a black bird
On a country street
Hiding from the world with a broken wing
But you better believe, you gonna fly with me
You could be a songbird from the New Orleans
Scared of the rain just as scared to sing
But you better believe yeah you better believe oh baby

You could be a black bird
On a country street
Hiding from the world with a broken wing
But you better believe, you gonna fly with me
You could be a songbird from the New Orleans
Scared of the rain just as scared to sing
But you better believe you're gonna fly with me

You're gonna fly
You're gonna fly with me baby




You better believe my honey girl
Ooh yeah, you're goin' to fly
