i seen the way you looked at the sky
you looked right up at it with unclouded eyes
that ain't the way i see anything
i don't know if i can stand another day of rain
you left the nest so long ago
you walked right out one day it was easy for you
ruffle your feathers, everything you have in my face
well i had to leave my wings at home today
cuz i seen you in the sky
how did you get so high
i don't know how to fly
cuz you leave me paralyzed
i i i i i i...
wonder why
only some of us get to touch the sky
you were born with blue, baby boy blue in your eyes
you were born to touch the sky, the sky my sky my sky
cuz i seen you in the sky
how did you get so high
cuz i don't know how to fly
and you leave me paralyzed
i i i i i
i know why
only some of us get to touch the sky
i know what privilege is i know what mine is and why
but if i could i'd steal yours
and i would fly so fucking high
cuz i seen you in the sky
how did you get so high
cuz i don't know how to fly
and you leave me paralyzed
i i i i i i i...
wonder why
only some of us get to touch the sky
all that i can do is watch you fly
all that i can do is watch you fly
all that i can do is say good bye (?)
