Halfway throughthe night, 
I wake up in a dream 
Echoes in my head, 
make every whisper turn into a scream 

I dreamed I could fly, out in the blue 
Over this town, following you 
Over the trees, subways and cars 
I'd try to find out who you really are 

In the middle of the night, 
cool sweatin' in my bed 
Got the windows open wide, 
thinkin' about all the things you said 

I wish I could fly, out in the blue 
Over this town, following you 
I'd fly over rooftops, the great boulevards 
To try to find out who you really are 
Who you really are 
Who you really are 

I wish I could fly now 
I wish I could fly now 

I wish I could fly, around and around 
Over this town, the dirt on the ground 
I'd follow your course of doors left ajar 
To try to find out who you really are 
To try to find out who you really are 

I wish I could fly
