Someday I wish I could fly,  
soar through the freeways of the sky.  
Clip on wings and leap into the sky,  
join the little birds as they fly,  
looking down at the chaos below  
happy to be free,  
free to go wherever I want to go.  
Flying way overhead-watching  
some lives miserably led  
and watch others  
with love and joy.  
I stand here now  
and I wish I could fly.
