FLY

FLY
lyrics and song by Joseph Bishara
------------------------------

I want a boat. maybe a train.
I want a chopper made of copper,
or an aerey-o-plane.
rocketships can get me fame.
I know what I want to try -
fly

found it hard finding home.
caught my stinger in the wringer.
worked my fingers to the bone.
my heavy hand picks up the phone
to give it another try
fly

ups and downs, thin and fat,
got my highs and my lows and all of that,
when the blues fall through to a deep blue vat,
don't forget where it's at -- and why,
fly

a breath in me, a breath in you
i'm not one who will tell you what to say or do
but a broken heart won't pull you through
set your sights on something up in the sky.
fly

missed the boat. skipped that train.
lost a chopper made of copper,
and a silly old plane.
rocketships aren't all the same.
spread my wings and leave a nest behind -
fly
