Come Fly Away

Lyrics by Jeremy Fisher

Like a sparrow on a wireSingin' the same song everydayI'm feeling restless but I'm tiredDon't want to leave but I can't stayYou and me need something moreIt's time to spread our wings and go

SSo come……. fly away!Through the clouds into the sunFar away from everyoneCome……. fly away

When we get above the rainThey are all… sunny daysMy heart is pounding like a hammer

Chasing the sChasing the seasons round the sunJust like a question with no answerI guess we're always on the runYou and me need something moreIt's time to spread our wings and go

So come……… fly away!Through the clouds into the sunFFar away from everyoneCome……… fly away

When we get above the rainThey are all…. sunny days
