John Denver - Flight (the Higher We Fly) lyrics

Your rating:





Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth

And danced the sky on laughter silvered wings

Sunward I’ve climbed and joined the tumbling mirth

Of sun-split clouds and done a hundred things

I’ve wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence

Hovering there I’ve chased the shouting winds aloft

And flung my eager craft through footless halls of air



The higher we fly, the farther we go

The closer we are to each other

The darker the night, the brighter the star

In peace go my sisters and brothers



Up, up, the long delirious burning blue

I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace

Where never lark nor even eagle flew

And while with silent lifting mind I trod

The high untresspassed sanctity of space

Put out my hand and touched the face of God



The higher we fly, the farther we go

The closer we are to each other

The darker the night, the brighter the star

In peace go my sisters and brothers
