Janis Ian - If We Had Wings lyrics
[Janis Ian - If We Had Wings lyrics]
I can't dance forever
Thinking we're together
Waiting for the words that never come
I need something more than
Waltzing 'round the floor when
My heart's aching to know you are the one
We better sit the next one out
We've got a lot to talk about
Between the diamonds and the doubt
If we had wings where would we fly?
Would you choose the safety of the ground
Or touch the sky? If we had wings
There's no use pretending
We're a happy ending
When we don't know where to begin
Will I ever know how far you want to go now?
Can you find our song upon the wind?
After all it's only fear
Ties us down and keeps us here
As our tomorrows disappear
If we had wings where would we fly?
Would you choose the safety of the ground
Or touch the sky? Seen from the air
Our world's too small but I would choose
The safety of your arms and have it all
If we had wings
If we had wings (If we had wings)
Where would we fly? (Where would we fly?)
Would you choose the safety of the ground
Or touch the sky? (Touch the sky)
If we had wings (If we had wings)
Where would we fly? (Where would we fly?)
Would you choose the safety of the ground
Or touch the sky? (Touch the sky)
If we had wings
Thinking we're together
Waiting for the words that never come
I need something more than
Waltzing 'round the floor when
My heart's aching to know you are the one
We better sit the next one out
We've got a lot to talk about
Between the diamonds and the doubt
If we had wings where would we fly?
Would you choose the safety of the ground
Or touch the sky? If we had wings
There's no use pretending
We're a happy ending
When we don't know where to begin
Will I ever know how far you want to go now?
Can you find our song upon the wind?
After all it's only fear
Ties us down and keeps us here
As our tomorrows disappear
If we had wings where would we fly?
Would you choose the safety of the ground
Or touch the sky? Seen from the air
Our world's too small but I would choose
The safety of your arms and have it all
If we had wings
If we had wings (If we had wings)
Where would we fly? (Where would we fly?)
Would you choose the safety of the ground
Or touch the sky? (Touch the sky)
If we had wings (If we had wings)
Where would we fly? (Where would we fly?)
Would you choose the safety of the ground
Or touch the sky? (Touch the sky)
If we had wings
