Barenaked Ladies - Flying Dreams Lyrics






If you could walk, if you could talk
Where would you go, what would you say to me?
I love the sound of you movin' around
Laughin' and dreamin' next to me

But I'll never know what you see
I hope it's a flying dream

Over fields, houses and hills
Over hospitals, shopping malls and ravines
Over walls, transcending it all
Love finds itself right where it longs to be
And I'll never know what you see
I hope it's a flying dream

You center me, you help me to see
What is important and what I should just let be
To blow away on garbage day
With candy rappers and cigarette packages

Through the dark days, the hard careens
Longing for flying dreams

There's no more leaves, the raindrops freeze
And glisten like teardrops in the the trees
Sink or swim, still sinking in
I've been swimming deep in the blues these days

Ever since fate intervened
And took away my flying dreams

Flying dreams
Flying dreams

    Flying dreams

    If you like this then have a listen to Art Garfunkel's album Fate For Breakfast.
    Its full of songs like this one.

  12. C.... B....

    This is definitely a BNL tribute to S & G, very nice!

  13. S.... ....

    This song conveys a beautiful mix of weirdness, sadness, beauty, and peace. I lost a good friend a few weeks ago, and hearing this song brought tears to my eyes.

  14. M.... L....

    This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. It's as though Gordon Lightfoot and Art Garfunkel decided to do a duet :) Blissful!

  15. S.... M....
