I cant stand to fly
Im not that naive
Im just out to find
The better part of me
Im more than a bird
More than a plane
Im more than some weary face beside a train
And its not easy to be me
Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
'Bout a home Ill never see
It may sound absurd
But dont be naive
Even heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed
But wont you concede
Even heroes have the right to dream
And its not easy to be me
Up up and away
Away, away from me
Well, well its all right
You can all sleep sound tonight
Im not crazy or anything
I cant stand to fly
Im not that naive
Men werent meant to ride
With clouds between their knees
Im only a man in a funny red sheet
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me
Special things inside of me
Im only a man in a funny red sheet
Im only a man
Looking for his lost dream
I'm only a man
Trying to help those in need
I'm only a man
Looking for his lost dream
And its not easy to be me
