Lyrics
If i ever get a second chance , to live my life again
I would wish to have a different view , than ordinary men
Of all the lives that grace the world , there's one that's really free
With wings to fly , and eyes to see , the only way for me
Like a bird in the sky , I dont mind where Im flyin'
Set me free at daylight , Wave a last goodbye
If you ever need a guiding light beyond the evening sun,
Just think of me , with open arms, where sky and earth are one,
You were born of nature's seed , your soul I did possess,
But now those wings , must carry you, until you find your rest
Like a bird ..(repeat of chorus)
Youve gotta live your life , Youve gotta spread your wings , it'll be allright,
No matter what you do , we always will be there for you
If I ever get a second chance to live my life again,
I would wish to have a different view , than ordinary men
Like a bird in the sky , I dont mind where Im flying
Set me free at daylight , wave a last goodbye
Like a bird in the sky , Idoont mind where Im flyin'
Like a bird
Like a bird
