Lyrics: What I would do if I could fly
What I would do if I could fly
What I would do if I could fly
What I would do if I could fly

I would fly over houses, over cities, past birds
Higher than airplanes and faster than lightning
Brighter than the Sun
Faster than you run
You would see me fly

I would fly with the rocket
Right straight to the moon
Except it would be quiet, not really loud
And a very little breeze would just touch the clouds

What I would do if I could fly
What I would do if I could fly
By the day the birds were saying noisily
The trees would hum easily
And the cats would hum softly

I pick a leaf and make some beef
But save it for my mom
I fly so high, you couldn’t see me
Fly so far, you couldn’t see me
But then I’d come back to see you
And then I’d even go my way
But I would come back someday

So try to fly very high on a summers day
Try to fly very high on a summers day
What I would do if I could fly
What I would do if I could fly
What I would do if I could fly
What I would do if I could fly
What I would do if I could fly
