On the Wing Songtext
von T’Pau

I can see you′re tired of being lonely
Tell me what I should do
On another day
We could try again
I could fly home to you

Is this some clever game
We used to be such friends
Now I am ridiculed by all the secrets that I told
And so my dream is gone
Of hope that I depended on
When will I ever learn
When will my heart discern
Just come back and love me and need me

See me trying
I'm on the wing
No fear of flying
I′m on the wing


If I say I won't be gone forever
Would you think it a lie
I could try to be
All you want to me
Would you still say goodbye
Do I detect in you
A change of attitude
I never thought I'd see
The day you′d turn away from me
And now I fantasize
You see the feeling in my eyes
How will I ever know
If you should walk and go
Just come back and love me, need me, see me fly

See me trying
I′m on the wing (yeah!)
No fear of flying
I'm on the wing

Now honey I′ve heard the things that you say
People tell me you talk behind my back
And we used to be such friends
Now you know I've worked so hard for everything I′ve got
It's my turn to fly
Baby I′m flying up high on the wing

See me (oh see me yeah) trying (I'm flying)
I'm on the wing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, whooah, yeah, yeah
No fear of flying (no fear, I′m flying)
I′m on the wing (I'm on the wing)
Whooah, hah


Oh see me (see me trying)
I′m flying
I'm flying yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I′m on the wing (on the wing)
Yeah, yeah, ooh, yeah, yeah

No fear of flying (no fear of flying)
I'm on the wing (on the wing)
