Well, I guess that you probably know by now

I was one who wanted to fly

I wanted to ride on that arrow of fire right up into

heaven

And I wanted to go for every man

Every child, every mother of children

I wanted to carry the dreams of all people right up to the

stars

And I prayed that I^?d find an answer there

Or maybe I^?d find a song

Giving a voice to all the hearts that cannot be heard

And for all the ones who live in fear

And all those who stand apart

My being there would bring us a little step closer

together

They were flying for me

They were flying for every one

They were trying to see a brighter day for each and evey

one

They gave us their light

They gave us their spirit and all they could be

They were flying for me

They were flying for me

And I wanted to wish on the Milky Way

And dance upon a falling star

I wanted to give myself and [G/e] free myself and join myself

with it all

Given the chance to dream it can be done

The promise of tomorrow is real

Children of the spaceship earth

The future belongs to us all

She was flying for me

She was flying for every one

She was flying to see a brighter day for each and every

one

She gave us her light

She gave us her spirit and all she can be

She was flying for me

They were flying for me

They were flying for every one

They were trying to see a brightrer day for each and every

one

They gave us their light

They gave us their spirit and all they could be

They were flying for me (4x)
