Alan Parsons - One Day to Fly

Where does a dream belong 
Locked in the mind on the edge of time 
Like a ship lost in a storm 
How do we find the key 
Longing to see through the artist`s eye 
Maybe only birds can fly

The man must be insane, who knows 
A mind alive with images so strange 
So close, but never rode the sky

Watching the birds as they sail on the wind 
Trying to figure out the reason why 
Picturing wings held together with string 
One day to fly...

Someone said, I believe 
Try if you dare, you can walk on air 
A dream is all you need 
A circle that takes you high 
Lighter than air as the Earth goes by 
Through a spiral in the sky

The man must be insane, who knows 
A mind alive with images so strange 
So close, but never rode the sky

Watching the birds as they sail on the wind 
Trying to figure out the reason why 
Picturing wings held together with string
One day to fly...

Just a charcoal sketch on canvas 
Made them laugh but now they see 
That the artist had a vision 
The wind could set us free 
It`s a bridge until tomorrow 
Taking us beyond the sun 
As the artist paints his picture now
The story`s just begun

Analyzing, criticizing 
Fear of the unknown 
Theorizing, visualizing 
The road to take us home 
If it takes forever 
Someone`s gonna fly 
We may never get to heaven 
But still we`re gonna try

Watching the birds 
As they sail on the wind 
One day to fly...
