nine o'clock on a saturday night
no one else is home
and the lights are off
you're drunk again
and you stumble in to the family
ah the family room
you look up at the picture on the wall
you see daddy his wife and his little girl
when are you gonna realize you're not that girl
you're no longer his little dady's girl
CHORUS:
you need to fly
spread your wings keep flying higher
you don't need to cry
no time for tears that has passed you by
has passed you by
you know you want to be a painter
he's got you working nine to five at McyDees
he says you gotta be more realistic
"don't you know that dreams are only dreams"
but he says that he knows what's best for you
but he, he doesn't know you at all no
he says, he says, he says all kinds of things now
he says he'll be there when you fall
CHORUS:
but you need to fly
spread your wings keep flying higher
you don't need to cry
no time for tears that has passed you by
has passed you by
has passed you by, by
(na na na na na na no no)
has passed you by
(na na na na na na na no)
BRIDGE:
dear God help me out now
oh Lord save my soul and you'll pray
dear God I'm all alone now
but I don't want to be alone anymore
spread your wings
no I don't want to
be alone anymore no
eeeehhhhh eehh
aaaahhhhhh
you need to get out from under his wings
or you're never going to learn to use your own, no
you need to stop listening to everything
or you're never going to make it alone
don't want, don't want to be alone anymore
don't want to be alone anymore
