If I Had Wings Lyrics - Album 1700 - Peter, Paul & Mary

If I had wings no one would ask me should I fly 

The bird sings, no one asks why 

I can see in myself wings as I feel them 

If you see something else, keep your thoughts to yourself 

I'll fly free then 

Yesterday's eyes see their colors fading away 

They see their sun turning to gray 

You can't share in a dream, that you don't believe in 

If you say that you see and pretend to be me 

You won't be then 

How can you ask if I'm happy goin' my way? 

You might as well ask a child at play 

There's no need to discuss or understand me 

I won't ask of myself to become something else 

I'll just be me 

If I had wings no one would ask me should I fly 

The bird sings, and no one asks her why 

I can see in myself wings as I feel them 

If you see something else, keep your thoughts to yourself 

I'll fly free then
