[Verse 1] If I could fly Maybe then I could see the forest And not just the trees Don't understand why all of my plans Just seem to melt in puddles under my feet Stuck here waiting, hesitating Trying to let go Holding onto to heavy things That I can't control [Chorus] I need a bird's eye view Up where the world is new High in a big balloon I need a bird's eye A bird's eye view [Verse 2] If I look past nose I can see it unfolding Like a flower blooming up through the snow No longer blind I'm setting my sights so I can watch my future start to unfold I'm seeing blurry visions clouded by fear Take me to the place where all the doubt disappears [Chorus] I need a bird's eye view Up where the world is new High in a big balloon I need a bird's eye A bird's eye view [Bridge] If you are seeking some true piece of mind Sometimes you just need a fresh pair of eyes Everything's clearer from up in the skies With you by my side [Chorus] I need a bird's eye view Up where the world is new High in a big balloon I need a bird's eye A bird's eye view
