Lyrics:
Music: chan kinchla Lyrics: john popper I remember hearing a story About a girl who wanted to fly Something about dreams as fragile as bubbles Well perhaps it won't apply It seems she'd flap her arms every day and every night As hard and as long as she could She knew her dream needed all the love she could give it For it to do her any good One night her heart spoke in a dream It told her if you really love this believe, because It takes the guiltiest of eyes To condemn the man who dies It takes a thousand of his best spies To expose as many lies It could take weeks for me to say How it'll take forever to go away And it takes everything you have Everything to be in love Well across the street there lived a little boy Sad disfigured child with two humps on his back Pitiful autistic little mess in a wheelchair The other kids all named him lack But lack started to take an interest In that girl across the way He'd watch in amazement from his window While she flapped her arms And that's how they'd spend their days She'd soon inspire him to stand That girl everyone called featherhead Made him clearly understand That It takes the guiltiest of eyes To condemn the man who dies It takes a thousand of his best spies To expose as many lies It could take weeks for me to say How it'll take forever to go away And it takes everything you have Everything to be in love Soon lack could walk and talk and hide his humps And people realized how clever he could be Feather still dreaming about the skies Unaware of how in love lack was with she One day she quit flapping her arms at last Convinced that she'd accomplished nothing at all When lack heard this he ran, not walked to her house And he begged her, yes he begged her not to let rome fall He said "everything I am now is for and because of you You see I understand your secret and I swear to god it's all true" It takes the guiltiest of eyes To condemn the man who dies It takes a thousand of his best spies To finally realize That it takes the strength of samson's hair To enter if you dare And it takes icarus in flight To provoke the gods to fight It could take weeks for me to say And it'll take forever to go away And it takes everything you have Everything to be in love Well time wears on, and soon featherhead and lack had to grow up Featherhead didn't quit and would be finishing flight school soon She works for nasa exploring space Flying regularly to jupiter's seventh moon Lack defying all laws of gravity and otherwise flew away You see those humps on his back grew into great big gossamer wings He changed his name to luck because he had so much He still flies where he's needed, doing all sorts of nifty and amazing things From time to time they meet up in the sky to celebrate Tax dollars and miracles can let the weirdest people date It takes the guiltiest of eyes To condemn the man who dies It takes a thousand of his best spies To expose as many lies It could take weeks for me to say How it'll take forever to go away And it takes everything you have Everything to be in love I remember hearing a story...
