I've seen the way you looked at the sky You looked right up at it with unclouded eyes That ain't the way I see anything I don't know if I can stand another day of rain You left the nest so long ago You walked right out one day, it was easy for you Ruffle your feathers, everything you have, in my face Well, I had to leave my wings at home today 'Cause I've seen you in the sky How did you get so high? 'Cause I don't know how to fly You leave me paralyzed I, I, I, I, I, I wonder why Only some of us get to touch the sky You were born with blue, baby boy blue in your eyes You were born to touch the sky, the sky, my sky, my sky 'Cause I've seen you in the sky How did you get so high? 'Cause I don't know how to fly You leave me paralyzed I, I, I, I, I, I know why Only some of us get to touch the sky I know what privilege is, I know what mine is and why But if I could, I'd steal yours and I would fly so f**ing high 'Cause I've seen you in the sky How did you get so high? 'Cause I don't know how to fly You leave me paralyzed I, I, I, I, I, I wonder why Only some of us get to touch the sky All that I can do is watch you fly All that I can do is watch you fly All that I can do is say goodbye
