Stone & Van Linden Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Look at me
It really was not easy
But I can breathe
And I'm so grateful cause I can see
I am free to do exactly what I please
So come with me to a place where we can be
I wanna touch the sky
I wanna fly so high

I wanna hold you
I wanna love you tonight
I wanna touch the sky
I wanna fly so high
I wanna satisfy
I wanna make you cry
I wanna fly so high
I wanna fly so high
I wanna touch the sky
I wanna fly so high
I wanna hold you
I wanna love you tonight
I wanna touch the sky
I wanna fly so high
I wanna satisfy
I wanna make you cry
I wanna make you cry
Just you and I
I wanna fly so high

I wanna make you cry
I wanna fly so high
