Lyrics for Flight by JOHN DENVER:
| | | Artist: | JOHN DENVER |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Flight | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 251 | | | | Lyrics: | (Magee, Jr.DenverHenryHoldridge)
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 untrespassed 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. | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
