If love had wings, like a bird has wings
Oh I'll be on my way
Across the night, this stormy night
Oh I'll be on my way
While the city sleeps, I lie awake
And I wonder when they'll be wondering
Do I feel this way
Down on the street, I hear two lovers laugh
While my heart aches
How I long for what they have
Tonight the only thing between us
Is the words we've yet to say
And I wouldn't have to dream tonight away
From the rooftops to the underground
There's nothing but the lonely sound
Of no one there
I hear sweet singers singing songs of love
Singing what I'm praying for
Lord hear my prayer
Oh I'm just staring at the ceiling
And I'm looking at my life
And what I see is something isn't right
Tonight the only thing between us
Is the words we've yet to say
And I wouldn't have to dream tonight away
