“Wish I Could Fly” lyrics

Here are the lyrics of "Wish I Could Fly" from haveaniceday.nu site: Halfway through the night I wake up in a dream Echoes in my head Make every whisper turn into a scream   I dreamed I could fly Out in the blue Over this town Following you Over the trees Subways and cars I'd try to find out Who you really are   In the middle of the night Cool sweatin' in my bed Got the windows open wide Thinkin' about all the things you said   I wish I could fly Out in the blue Over this town Following you I'd fly over rooftops The great boulevards To try to find out Who you really are Who you really are   I wish I could fly now Wish I could fly now Wish I could fly now   I wish I could fly Around and around Over this town The dirt on the ground I'd follow your course Of doors left ajar To try to find out Who you really are   To try to find out Who you really are Words & Music by Per Gessle / Published by HipHappy.
