Wings - William Clark Green

In my younger days

I was flying free

That’s before there was you and me

I love 'em and I leave 'em

And you changed everything

Oh, who the hell needs wings

I don’t need a reason to chase freedom

I found something I can believe in

Seeing what I’m seeing

Is like nothing I’ve ever seen

Who the hell needs wings

I’m so sick of sleeping

In the same old bed

Just tossin' and turnin' in the sheets

I know it’s not a palace

But I’ve got some bread

Just enough to afford a queen

I don’t need a reason to chase freedom

I found something I can believe in

Seeing what I’m seeing

Is like nothin' I’ve ever seen

Who the hell needs wings

I don’t need a reason to chase freedom

I found something I can believe in

Seeing what I’m seeing

Is like nothing I have ever seen

Who the hell needs wings

Who the hell needs wings

In my younger days

I was flying free

Oh, who the hell needs wings
