if i was a bird lyrics

Sometimes blindness finds me and leads me through ignorance
Not allowing us to gain experience so we become lifeless
At other times I cover with self pity or work aimlessly through reality
So occasionally I choose to travel alone

But never fulfill my possibility
So mostly I attempt to achieve balance
By seeking right knowledge and loving and reviewing
And eventually over standing those many lessons of my life

You got me caught in a stormy eyed world that drains
And I beg to see truth and promises you made to me
Now we've come so far but my visions of happiness
With you in my life I'm afraid and confused
If I was a bird I'd fly

If I was a bird I'd fly away, spread my wings so I'd escape
If I was the sky I'd let it rain to wash away the pain
If I was a bird I'd fly away, spread my wings so I'd escape
If I was the sky I'd let it rain to wash away the pain

Now why do I feel so alone knowing I know I have you
And what made you turn around on me what did I do?
And when did love feel this way so much pain and misery
Where's the you I once knew and could you fly with me?

If I was a bird I'd fly away, spread my wings so I'd escape
If I was the sky I'd let it rain to wash away the pain
If I was a bird I'd fly away, spread my wings so I'd escape
If I was the sky I'd let it rain to wash away the pain

Now I can't stay, you won't need me
Set me free and let me fly
Oh fly with me, fly with me me
Fly with me, yeah, fly, oh fly, fly

If I was a bird I'd fly away, spread my wings so I'd escape
If I was the sky I'd let it rain to wash away the pain
If I was a bird I'd fly away, spread my wings so I'd escape
If I was the sky I'd let it rain to wash away the pain

Fly away
If I were the sky I'd let it rain to wash the pain
Fly away
If I were the sky I'd let it rain
