Píseň: Learning To Fly

Interpret:
Pink Floyd
Album:
Echoes: The Best Of Pink Floyd (Compilation Album)
Into the distance, a ribbon of black 
Stretched to the point of no turning back 
A flight of fancy on a wind swept field 
Standing alone my senses reeled 
A fatal attraction is holding me fast 
How can I escape this irresistable grasp? 
Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky 
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I 
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings 
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything 
No navigator to guide my way home 
Unladened, empty and turned to stone 
A soul in tension that's learning to fly 
Condition grounded but determined to try 
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies 
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I 
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer 
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air 
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly 
Out of the corner of my watering eye 
I dream unthreatened by the morning light 
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night 
There's no sensation to compare with this 
Suspended animation, a state of bliss 
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies 
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
