[English]
Halfway through the night
I wake up in a dream
...
Echoes in my head
Make every whisper turn into a scream
I dreamed I could fly out in the blue
Over this town following you over the trees
Subways and cars
I'd try to find out who you really are
In the middle of the night (middle of the night, in the middle of the night, in the middle of the night)
Cool sweatin' in my bed
...
Got the windows open wide
...
Thinking about all the things you said
I wish I could fly out in the blue
Over this town following you
I'd fly over rooftops
The great boulevards
To try to find out who you really are, who you really are
...
I wish I could fly now
...
I wish I could fly now
...
I wish I could fly now
...
I wish I could fly around and around over this town
The dirt's on the ground
I'll follow your course of doors left ajar
To try to find out who you really are, who you really are
...
I'd fly, I'd fly, I'd fly
...
I wish I could fly
...
I wake up in a dream (middle of the night, in the middle of the night, in the middle of the night)
In the middle of the night
I wish I could fly (middle of the night, in the middle of the night, in the middle of the night)
(In the middle of the night, in the middle of the night)
I wish I could fly
...
