Dedicated to anyone who ever wished they could fly.

Lucky little sparrow
Gliding though the air
It’s a miracle, the way you travel everywhere!
Lucky little sparrow
Soaring through the sky
Wish that I had wings like you and I could fly

I’d fly so high that I would see
The Statue of Liberty smiling at me
A breeze would lift me, off I’d go
To Egypt, Australia or old Mexico

Wish I had an angel
As my lifelong friend
She would have an extra pair of wings to lend
We’d explore the heavens
Mercury and Mars
The seven rings of Saturn, Neptune and the stars

We’d fly so high that I would see
Orion and Gemini smiling at me
Aquarius would nod “hello”
Polaris would help us to find our way home

Lucky little sparrow
Soaring through the sky
Wish that I had wings like you and I could fly

Lucky little sparrow
Please wait up for me!
I know tonight that I’ll be flying in my dreams
In my dreams….
