We will fly way up high
Where the cold wind blows
Or in the sun
Laughing having fun
With 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

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

That's the way it's gonna be
That's the way it's gonna be
And if you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up
That's the way it's gonna be
That's the way it's gonna be
And if you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up

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

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

That's the way it's gonna be
That's the way it's gonna be
And if you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up
That's the way it's gonna be
That's the way it's gonna be
And if you fall, I'll pick you up, pick you up
