Don't get me wrong, I'm doing all right
Can't you see I'm OK
I'm not at home all alone every night
I'm out here dancing old memories away 

But it wouldn't hurt to have wings
To lift me above all the pain of the past
And your mind-wrecking love
They say time can fly like a magical thing
But it sure wouldn't hurt to have wings 

I don't see things like love any more
The rose-colored glasses are gone
I won't be fooled like I was before
I'm learning now how to fly on my own 
But it wouldn't hurt to have wings

To lift me above all the pain of the past
And your mind-wrecking love
They say time can fly like a magical thing
But it sure wouldn't hurt to have wings 

I'm gonna fly like an eagle
And rise above it all 

But it wouldn't hurt to have wings
To lift me above all the pain of the past
And your mind-wrecking love
They say time can fly like a magical thing
But it sure wouldn't hurt to have wings 
No, it sure wouldn't hurt to have wings
