Story Behind the Song
"While we're talking, envious time is fleeing: seize the day, put no trust in the future."
Horace (68-8 B.C.)
Lyrics
I am here, you are there,
I see the ocean rolling in your hair and I know.
Time stands still, then time flies,
I see diamonds sparkling in your eyes and I know, I know.
If you look out from your cloud,
If you see me stand out from the crowd,
I know, I'll never let you go,
No, I'll never let you go.
A name to call, a number to dial,
I see moonbeams dancing in your smile and I know.
Chance a loss or lose a chance,
I see lightening flashing in your glance and I know, I know.
If you look out from your cloud,
If you stop and call my name out loud,
I know, I'll never let you go,
No, I'll never let you.
Did I hear you say you want me?
Did I hear these words?
Did you really say you love me?
Is that what I heard?
On the wings of a bird.
Play the game or just play dumb,
I feel my heartbeat pounding like a drum and I know.
Live for love for life is brief,
I feel my body shaking like a leaf and I know, I know.
If you look out from your cloud,
If you stop and call my name out loud,
I know, I'll never let you go,
No, I'll never let you.
Did I hear you say you want me?
Did I hear these words?
Did you really say you love me?
Is that what I heard?
On the wings of a bird.
Fly away...fly away...fly away...fly away...
