If I Had Wings

If I Had Wings - Peter, Paul & Mary (彼得、保羅和瑪麗)/Paul and 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 going 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
