Pink Floyd - Learning to fly lyrics

Your rating:
Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone, my senses reeled
A fatal attraction is holding me fast
How can I escape this irresistible grasp?

Can't keep my eyes 
From the circling skies
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
Unladen, empty and turned to stone

A soul intention is learning to fly
Condition grounded 
But determined to try
Can't keep my eyes
From the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted
Just an earthbound misfit, I

Above the planet on a wing and a prayer
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air
Above the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
To 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 mind 
From the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted
Just an earthbound misfit, I
