Once I flew
And it made my fingertips sing
I was more like a God than a king
Now I can´t believe that was true
Once I flew
Though you don´t believe me I know
You look where I´m standing now
You can´t believe I left the ground.
Look up to the bright blue sky
Can´t you feel life passing by
If you could wouldn´t you
Try to soar over everything?
All the pain this world can bring
Once I flew now I´ve lost my wings
Now I´m down here with you
Now I´m down here with you
Once I flew
And the angels were my friends
They would grant me every whim
Now I can´t believe that was true
Once I flew
Though it´s easy to forget
I don´t seem to have managed yet.
And I don´t think I ever will
Look up to the bright blue sky
Can´t you feel the life passing by?
If you could wouldn´t you
Try to soar over everything?
All the pain this world can bring
Once I flew now I´ve lost my wings
Now I´m down here with you
Now I´m down here with you.
And in my dreams I am happy again
You´re in my arms and we´re flying
Again, flying away.
And it made my fingertips sing
I was more like a God than a king
Now I can´t believe that was true
Once I flew
Though you don´t believe me I know
You look where I´m standing now
You can´t believe I left the ground.
Look up to the bright blue sky
Can´t you feel life passing by
If you could wouldn´t you
Try to soar over everything?
All the pain this world can bring
Once I flew now I´ve lost my wings
Now I´m down here with you
Now I´m down here with you
Once I flew
And the angels were my friends
They would grant me every whim
Now I can´t believe that was true
Once I flew
Though it´s easy to forget
I don´t seem to have managed yet.
And I don´t think I ever will
Look up to the bright blue sky
Can´t you feel the life passing by?
If you could wouldn´t you
Try to soar over everything?
All the pain this world can bring
Once I flew now I´ve lost my wings
Now I´m down here with you
Now I´m down here with you.
And in my dreams I am happy again
You´re in my arms and we´re flying
Again, flying away.
