Ray Thomas, Lyrics:

I wish we could fly.

You can't buy a dream
Then expect your schemes
To appear brand new
Like the way you do
It's not hard to find
Deep inside your mind
Which road will take you home

Now you know that rain
Never falls in vain
For the seed must grow
It's glory shows
In the summer sun
While our world is young
They reach to touch the sky

I wish we could fly
I wish we could fly
How I wish we could fly

I wish we could fly
I wish we could fly
How I wish we could fly

Then we'd see far more clearly
Maybe then we'd know
The best way we should go
Man just has to grow and grow and grow

All the air we breathe
And the warmth we need
It's given to us free
Like you loving me
Throughout our days
In so many ways
Helps me reach to touch my sky

But I can't explain
Self inflicted pain
When there's room for all
To play life's game
And as we know
Our love must grow
Or we'll never touch the sky

I wish we could fly
I wish we could fly
How I wish we could fly

I wish we could fly
I wish we could fly
Oh how I wish we could fly....
