Lyrics
I don't want to miss
I don't want to miss this
I don't want to miss this inbetweeness
Thinking of the end
Thinking of the end when
Thinking of the end when all is said and done
Time passes by
can not rewind
Some of us seem to be lost in a dream
walkin around with our heads in the clouds
but I want to be like a bird in a tree
Living in the moment
I wanna be
I wanna be that free
For a little while
I am still a child
anything can happen
that's for certain
we see our lives
in the sunrise
Some of us seem to be lost in a dream
walkin around with our heads in the clouds
but I want to be like a bird in a tree
Living in the moment
I wanna be
I wanna be that free
Wake up
clear your hazy eyes
let go of the reasoning
and realize
even pain can teach you something
so turn around
give it a smile
Some of us seem to be lost in a dream
walkin around with our heads in the clouds
but I want to be floating right in the clear blue sky
we can't pretend when we get to the end
where do we go? nobody knows
but I wanna be like a bird in a tree
living in the moment
I wanna be
I wanna be
I wanna be that free
