If I could fly, I'd swoop and dive,
I'd sing and smile, I'd fly a mile,
If only I could fly.
If I could fly, I wouldn't sigh,
I would fly to school, I'd fly to the pool,
If only I could fly.
If I could fly, I'd do it up high,
I'd fly above hills, I'd ignore the icy chills,
If only I could fly.
If I could fly, I'd own the sky,
I would be happy as can be, then I would be FREE!
If only I could fly.
