[Verse 1]
I'd like to be your friend
Always find you in the crowd
There's always someone singing
Where only whispering is allowed
Some people say
"Keep your feelings in your head"
But someone's always living
Instead of wishin' he was dead

[Chorus]
Now if I wanna fly away
Or if I wanna stay
I just wanna be myself
And live from day to day

[Verse 2]
"Some time tomorrow"
That's what I hear people say
They want to wait and borrow
The time they got today
Keep on, my friend
Keep on reachin' for the sky
There's always someone singing
Instead of wondering why
[Chorus]
So go on and sing your song
We'll meet another time
I'll remember your song
So please remember mine

(bridge)

[Chorus]
Now if I wanna fly away
Or if I wanna stay
I just wanna be myself
And live from day to day
