Texty: Joe Nichols. If I Could Only Fly.
(with Lee Ann Womack)
Almost felt you touching me just now
I wish I knew which way to turn and go
I feel so good and then I feel so bad
I wonder what I ought to do
(Chorus)
If I can only fly
If I can only fly
I?d bid this place good-bye
To come and be with you
But I can hardly stand
And I got nowhere to run
Another sinking sun
One more lonely night
The wind keeps blowing somewhere everyday
Telling me things get better somewhere up the way
This dismal thinking on a dismal day
And a sad songs for us to bare
(Instrumental interlude)
(Chorus)
If I can only fly
If I can only fly
I?d bid this place good-bye
To come and be with you
You know sometimes I write happy songs
Then some little thing goes wrong
I wish they all can make you smile
Coming home soon and I wanna stay
Maybe we could somehow get away
I wish you could come with me when I go again
(Chorus)
If I can only fly
If we can only fly
I?d bid this place good-bye
To come and be with you
But I can hardly stand
And I got nowhere to run
Another sinking sun
No more lonely night
