Songs that say "fly, flying.."in them

[Atlas722]

Tom Petty's "Learning to Fly"

 

[PollyannaMom]

Believe It or Not - Joey Scarbury (from a great TV show!)

Ah, Greatest American Hero! That's the song I was thinking of as well. (Now I'll have to keep digging.)

 

[PollyannaMom]

OK, here's one:


I saw a peanut stand, heard a rubber band,
I saw a needle that winked its eye.
But I think I will have seen everything
When I see an elephant fly.

 

[Planogirl]

Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground by Willie Nelson

 

[Micca]

It doesn't really "say" flying because it's an instrumental but the title:

Flying -- The Beatles (trivia: Also it's one of three instrumentals recorded by them credited to Lennon/McCartney/Harrison/Starr)

 

[AppleDumpling]

Over The Rainbow

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby

Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds
are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?

If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

 

[Gary M]

"You Belong To Me"-The Duprees (Fly the ocean in a silver plane)
