Valerie has wings, you see
But she don't fly around
No, Valerie walks beside me
With both feet on the ground
Secretly, when she's asleep
I'm learning how to fly
And one day I will join her in the sky

She's okay with summer days
Spent lying in the grass
And celebrating mortal ways
To watch white clouds pass
Valerie had the capacity
To see it from above
But she gave it up for love
She gave it up for love
She gave it up for love

Valerie has wings, you see
But she don't fly around
No, Valerie walks beside me
With both feet on the ground
Secretly, when she's asleep
I'm learning how to fly
And one day I will join her
One day I will join her
One day I will join her in the sky
