Give Me Wings

Michael Johnson

He asked her, what gifts can I bring you

To prove that my love for you is true

I want to make you mine forever

There's nothing on this earth I would not do

She said, anything I've wanted

You have given willingly

So now there's only one more thing I need



If you love me, give me wings

And don't be afraid if I fly

A bird in a cage will forget how to sing

If you love me, give me wings



He walked over to the window

He silently stared into space

Then he said, well I just want to protect you

'Cause this world is a dangerous place

She put her arms around him

She said, I know you mean well

But there are lessons I must learn for myself



So if you love me, give me wings

And don't be afraid if I fly

A bird in a cage will forget how to sing

And you can trust me, so give me wings



She said, up above the clouds, you can see forever

And I know you and I can learn to fly together



If you love me, give me wings

Don't be afraid if I fly

A bird in a cage will forget how to sing

And you can trust me, so give me wings



If you really love me

Give me wings
