Lyrics + translation · letras.mus.br

🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • I'm flying without wings
  • And you're the place my life begins
  • And you'll be where it ends
  • I'm flying without wings

Echo the hook

  • You're flying without wings
  • Some find it sharing every morning
  • Some in their solitary lives
  • You'll find it in the words of others
