Don't get me wrong, I'm doing all right
Can't you see I'm OK
I'm not at home all alone every night
I'm out here dancing old memories away

(Chorus)
But it wouldn't hurt to have wings
To lift me above all the pain of the past
And your mind-wrecking love
They say time can fly like a magical thing
But it sure wouldn't hurt to have wings

I don't see things like love any more
The rose-colored glasses are gone
I won't be fooled like I was before
I'm learning now how to fly on my own

(Repeat chorus)

I'm gonna fly like an eagle
And rise above it all

(Repeat chorus)

No, it sure wouldn't hurt to have wings.
