Van Morrison
Flamingos Fly
[Verse 1]
You lay by my side in the still of the night
Let morning bring forth all that's wondrous, wondrous to light, mm-hmm
You could have made it, made it more plain
When I hear that, hear that soft refrain
And I hear you gently sigh
[Chorus]
I wanna take you where flamingos fly
Flamingos fly
Way over yonder in the clear blue sky
That's where flamingos fly
[Verse 2]
As we lie in the dark and hear the sweet sound of the nightingale
And we listen for the lark, and I wanna tell you, babe, tell you a tale, yeah
With the soft wind blowin', blowin' outside
Hey, I wanna take that moonlight ride
And I hear you gently sigh, babe
[Chorus]
I wanna take you where flamingos fly
Flamingos fly
Way over yonder in the clear blue sky
That's where flamingos fly
[Bridge]
And I'm silently waiting for that morning light to shine
And I'm looking at you, lookin' at me, and I'm lookin' at you
And I'm anticipating with each and every sign
Yes, I'm lookin' at you, lookin' at me
Lookin' at you, lookin' at me, lookin' back at you
[Verse 3]
And I follow that road that will take me, take me back home to you baby
Yeah, and I'll carry the load where the deer and angels roam
Where happiness touches, touches the now
I don't where it came from, I don't know how
And I, and I hear you gently sigh
[Chorus]
I wanna take you where flamingos fly
Way over yonder
(Way over yonder in the clear blue sky
That's where flamingos fly, flamingos fly)
Yeah, where flamingos fly
[Outro]
(Way over yonder) Just you and I (in the clear blue sky
That's where flamingos fly) take me where (flamingos fly)
I can't wait no longer
(Way over yonder) I can't wait no longer(in the clear blue sky
I want to take you where flamingos fly
That's where flamingos fly, flamingos fly)
Flamingos fly
(Way over yonder) come on, baby (in the clear blue sky)
Come on, baby I want to take you there (That's where flamingos fly)
Just you and I (flamingos fly)
One time way over yonder
(Way over yonder in the clear blue sky)
(That's where flamingos fly, flamingos fly)
