What if you woke up in the middle of the night

And in your bare feet you walked outside


And realizing that you were awake that you could fly


Out over the world

To places that you've only heard of


See faces that you were sold as murderers


But just like you they're only lonely boys and girls

Like all over the world


What if you could lift them up?


What if you could make it so that times weren't tough?

So ever morning when the world woke up


There'd only be weather on the news


And what if you were back in bed

With one of them floating over your head






What do you say to your enemies


When you don't know what it is that could have been between you?

There ain't no blue skies over bad lands


Even if it ain't raining in the mornings


But you don't need to fly to understand it

Just understand understanding
