Wing

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I was a wing in heaven blue

Soared over the ocean

Soared over spain

And i was free

Needed nobody

It was beautiful

It was beautiful

I was a pawn

Didn't have a move

Didn't have nowhere

That i could go

But i was free

I needed nobody

It was beautiful

It was beautiful

And if there's one thing

Could do for you

You'd be a wing

In heaven blue

I was a vision

In another eye

And they saw nothing

No future at all

Yet i was free

I needed nobody

It was beautiful

It was beautiful

And if there's one thing

Could do for you

You'd be a wing

In heaven blue

And if there's one thing

Could do for you

You'd be a wing

In heaven blue

And if there's one thing

Could do for you

You'd be a wing

In heaven blue
