lyrics

I love to sit way up high where I can level with the sky
And stare at passers-by without them lifting an eye
I love to sit up in the clouds where no one is around
And listen for the music to set me free

But there are no children laughing up in the clouds
No tragedies, no timid smiles
But miles and miles for my mind to run wild

So I forget about gravity and climb the walls to liberty
And listen for the wisdom of the song

But there are no children laughing up in the clouds
No tragedies, no timid smiles
But miles and miles for my mind to run wild

Wild and free, for my mind to run wilds and free
Runnin', catching'
Wild and free

It's the song that I will not hear 'til life has been lived and death is near
Wild and free, in liberty
