If I Could Only Fly - Blaze Foley

I almost felt you touching me just now

I wish I knew which way to turn and go

I feel so good, and then I feel so bad

I wonder what I ought to do

If I could only fly, if I could only fly

I’d bid this place goodbye to come and be with you

But I can hardly stand, I got nowhere to run

Another sinking sun, another lonely night

The wind keeps blowing somewhere everyday

Tell me things get better, somewhere up the way

Just dismal thinking on a dismal day

Sad songs for us to bear

You know sometimes I write happy songs

But then sometimes little things went wrong

You know I wish they all could make you smile

Tomorrow maybe we can get away

I’m coming home soon and I wanna stay

I wish you could come with me when I go again

If I could only fly, if I could only fly

I’d bid this place goodbye to come and be with you

But I can hardly stand, I got nowhere to run

Another sinking sun, one more lonely night

If I could only fly

If you could only fly

If we could only fly

There’d be no more lonely nights
