There's a guy trying to start on his own life
He's starting at the bottom 'cause he's never been high enough to see the world
He's got his own wife and his own bills
He's trying to make a living with his own skills but it
Not quite enough
They're both going all day working toward their dreams
Away from each other and sometimes it seems like it's too much
On the nights when he's had nothing but a long hard day
He loves to lie right next to her and say

Sometimes I wish that I could fly so far away from here
And all that I would take is you
We could just fly away and come back to reality some other day
And fall in love some more

There's a world out there that just isn't fair
She doesn't understand why nobody cares that she just wants to go home
She waited all her life for her perfect guy
Now that he finally came she just wants some time with him
Is that too much to ask?
She's going down the path that she hopes is right
But every now and then she doesn't want to try anymore
She's losing hope

On the nights when she's had nothing but a long hard day
She loves to lie right next to him and say

Sometimes I wish that I could fly so far away from here
And all that I would take is you
We could just fly away and come back to reality some other day
And fall in love some more
