Little Wing lyrics
The CorrsNow she's walking through the clouds
With a circus mind
That's running wild
Butterflies and zebras
And moonbeams and fairytales
All she ever thinks about is riding with the wind...
When I'm sad she comes to me
With a thousand smiles
She gives to me, free
It's alright, it's alright she says
Take anything you want from me
Anything...
[Instrumental]
Now she's walking through the clouds
With a circus mind
That's running wild...
Butterflies and zebras
And moonbeams and fairytales
All she ever thinks about is riding with the wind...
[Guitar solo... end of live version]
When I'm sad she comes to me
With a thousand smiles
She gives to me free
It's alright, it's alright she says
Take anything you want from me
Anything...
Fly Little Wing... Yeah, Yeah...
[Guitar solo]... Ah...
Fly Little Wing... yeah
I want her to fly
[Instrumental...outro]
