If I Could Fly (High Tonight) Poem by Daniel S Fletcher

If I Could Fly (High Tonight)



~Fletch



If I could fly…
With golden wings
Oh, wouldn't I be a sight?
If I could sing
Like an angel sings
I'd sing your favourite song tonight

If I could soar…
Like a falcon soars
I'd be higher than high as a kite
If I could roar
Like a dragon roars
I'd holler to my heart's delight

Riding from polisi down the beachwalk, boy
I'm flying down the lane
Surfboard on my rack, feeling higher than crack
And I know, I'm cabbaged again


'Cause YOU SAY
Everything is grey
We'll be Okay
I'm high today...

YOU MIGHT
Panic in a fright
But we'll be alright
I'm high tonight...

So high tonight...
So high tonight...

If I
Was a writer
Oh I'd be high as a kite
If I
Was a fighter
I'd fly to my heart's delight
If I could sing
Like an angel sings
I'd sing your favourite song tonight
If I could swing
Like Prince Naseem swings
We're hotstepping along to fight


Racing from polisi down the rice-field road
I'm blazing down the lane
Board on the rack, no cash but higher than smack
Jumpin' Jack Flash, you're cabbaged again


You might
Think you're gonna cry
But we'll be alright
We're high tonight

You might
Think it's chaos gone awry
But we shine bright!
So high tonight

You might
Panic in a fright
But we'll be alright
I'm high tonight

You might
Deny the starlight
But we shine bright
Get high tonight

So high tonight...

So high tonight...
I'm high tonight...
I'm high tonight...
I'm high tonight...


If I
Was a writer
Wouldn't we have a nice time?
If I
Was a fighter
Wouldn't we have a nice time?
If I could sing
Like an angel sings
Wouldn't we have a bright time?
If I could swing
Like Prince Naseem swings
Wouldn't we have a right time?


Riding from polisi down the beachwalk, boy
I'm flying down the lane
Surfboard on my rack, a high savage as crack
And I know, I'm cabbaged again


YOU MIGHT
Think you're gonna cry
But we'll be alright
We're high tonight

You might
Think it's chaos gone awry
But we shine bright!
So high tonight

You might
Panic in a fright
But we'll be alright
I'm high tonight

You might
Deny the starlight
But we shine bright
Get high tonight

You might
Panic in a fright
But we'll be alright
I'm high tonight

You might
Think we ought to cry
I don't know why
Let's fly tonight

You might
Panic in a fright
But we'll be alright
I'm high tonight...

So high tonight...

So high tonight...
I'm high tonight...
I'm high tonight...
I'm high tonight...

So high tonight...

I'm high tonight...
I'm high tonight...
I'm high tonight...
I'm high tonight...
