John Legend – When You Can Fly Lyrics

When You Can Fly By John Legend

Frogs gonna leap
Gators gonna bite
A gray wolf pack is gonna rule the night
A mountain lion’s never been afraid of heights
But it’s better when you can fly

bunnies gonna hop, otters gonna play
The rooster can ***-a-doodle-doo all day
Catfish can swim, but I bet they’d say
It’s better when you can fly

The view from the blue sky
It looks so good when you’re up ***
The blues come ’round, they won’t get me down
I can make my escape

I’m not sly like a fox
Don’t sting like a bee
A grizzly won’t ever run away from me
I think of all the things they could never see
It’s better when you can fly

[Film Interlude]

The view from the blue sky
It looks so good when you’re up ***
The blues come ’round, they won’t get me down
I can make my escape

I’m not sly like a fox
Don’t bite like a flea
A grizzly won’t ever run away from me
I think of all the things they could never see
It’s better when you can fly

Oh, the view from the blue sky
It looks so good when you’re up ***
The blues come ’round, they won’t get me down
I can make my escape

Oh, everybody sings
But not like me
The air’s much better here above the trees
Look up in the sky, I’m a sight to see
It’s better when you can fly

Oh, the view from the blue sky
It looks so good when you’re up ***
Oh, but when I’m down, won’t you come around?
Help me make my escape

No matter how *** a crow can go
There’s gonna come a time when he’s brought down low
Oh, hit rock bottom, and I just don’t know
If it’s better when you can fly
