If I could, I’d tie to me a thousand birds and fly,
Above the highest mountain tops, on past the clouds and sky;
I’d soar beyond the earth and stars, and land where angels play,
Just to hold you close once more—oh surely there’s a way.
If I could, I’d tie to me a thousand birds and fly,
Above the highest mountain tops, on past the clouds and sky;
I’d soar beyond the earth and stars, and land where angels play,
Just to hold you close once more—oh surely there’s a way.
Someday I hope, when I grow old, I’ll find the one for me,
And we shall live our lives throughout in peace and harmony.
And when God comes and says it’s time for us to say adieu,
I’ll leave my earthly form behind but not my love for you.
