Once in a while i see you
once in a while i don't.
and when i when i see you
i feel like flying over,
flying over the clouds oh yeah
Oh, i wanna do something for you,
i could fix your broken shoe,
i don't wanna hide.
oh, i wanna help you find the clue,
so that we save our own few,
i don't wanna hide.
I wanted to buy you some flowers,
i went downtown, the shops were closed.
but when i saw you smilin',
i felt like flying over,
flying over the clouds. oh, yeah!
oh, i wanna do something for you
just tell me what to do.
i don't wanna hide.
but i know that you'll be leaving soon
but i never will forget you.
i don't wanna hide.
Why will it take so long
until i can see you again. (2x)
and you know
it's just a dream. oh, yeah! (2x)
Oh, i wanna do something for you...
why will it take so long...
eeh yeah...
