Twenty years ago I rode by helicopter to the sky
I laughed at gravitation for a moment I was free
They say I never landed you know they may be right
It looks better from above with some distance in betweenTo leave is never easy perhaps it shouldn't be
Return is even harder, yes to return is harder still
To leave is never easy perhaps it shouldn't be
But return is even harder, yes to return is harder stillI often dream of flying far above the city streets
I beat my wings and leave for Cairo or New York
I can go to many places but there's no one there to meet
And the sky is a lonely place just me and the silent cloudsTo leave is never easy perhaps it shouldn't be
Return is even harder, yes to return is harder still
To leave is never easy perhaps it shouldn't be
But return is even harder, yes to return is harder still
