FLY TO YOU Morton, Greenberg, Rollings I can see the world from here High above the hills Fly to catch your falling tears Fly to your windowsill Sigh with a gorgeous blue Breathe like it's the last thing you'll do But cry so I will fly to you Fly when the day is through I know what I have to do But I promise I'll be home soon And it's true that when I can I'll fly to you Swim beneath the waterline Plunge into the soil I dig myself a place to lie Build me a box of wood and foil But you can take the ribbons off And scramble up my bones Then tie me up in bows again So no one ever knows But us I know what I have to do But I promise I'll be home soon And it's true that when I can I'll fly to you I can see the world from here... I know what I have to do But I promise I'll be home soon And it's true that when I can I'll fly to you
WILDEST DREAMS Morton, Binder (in memory of Joann Miller) We have never ever been so far From our homelands We are finding out what's in our hearts And what's in our hand A brotherhood in the sun and sand Nine days sleeping in a hotel room That's the longest yet L.A. fogging out evening moon So the sun won't set A brotherhood and we do our best Can you look back and laugh At your lifetime Can you believe It would treat you so kind Keep on pushing through those longer days And listne to a slow song Breaking through the storm like rays From a dawning sun A brotherhood and we are as one Can you look back and laugh At your lifetime Can you believe It would treat you so kind So many things remain Still to be seen In our wildest dreams Can you look back and laugh At your lifetime Can you believe It would treat you so kind So many things remain Still to be seen In our wildest dreams
WAKING UP Morton, Greenberg, Rollings Twenty years are chasing me And twenty years are facing me down Still there's no real explanation No formal invitation that I've found All this time I heard you talking I never noticed how much I love the sound Now I know it's getting late But I feel better just having you around I'm waking up It's breaking me down It shakes me up When you come around I didn't know it would be like this But I guess my pre-life crisis has arrived I drag my heart behind me Until your voice reminds me I'm alive Now I'm standing in the morning sun Wondering what I've done to get this far As I set out from the shadows I can see just who you are I'm waking up It's breaking me down It shakes me up When you come around When you come around Suddenly you were older, bolder So much more to think about This song has always been inside me Just took me twenty years to get it out I'm waking up It's breaking me down It shakes me up When you come around
