We will fly
Way up high
Where the cold wind blows

Or in the sun
Laughing having fun
With all the people that she knows

And if the situation should keep us separated
You know the world won't fall apart
And you will free the beautiful bird
That's caught inside your heart

Can't you hear her?
Oh, she cries so loud
Casts her wild note
Over water and cloud

That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin'
We'll be riding on the horses, yeah, yeah
Way up in the sky, little darlin'
If you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up

Woo, woo, woo, woo
Woo

You will grow
And until you go
I'll be right there by your side
And even then
Whisper the wind
And she will carry up your ride

I hear all the people of the world
In one bird's lonely cry
See them trying every way they know how
To make their spirit fly
Can't you see him?
He's down on the ground
Has a broken wing
Looking all around

That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin'
You go riding on the horses, yeah, yeah
Way up in the sky, little darlin'
If you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up

That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin'
We'll be riding on the horses, yeah, yeah
Way up in the sky, little darlin'
Yeah, if you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up

Yeah, if you fall I'll pick you up, pick you up
If you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up
Pick you up darling if you fall
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, little girl

Because I was young myself not so long ago
When I was young (if you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up)
When I was young (if you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up)
Oh, ooh (if you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up)
When I was a wild, wild one (if you fall, I'll pick you up)
Ooh, woo

Oh, oh
The horse was gone
