lirik lagu janis ian – ginny the flying girl
ginny the flying girl, wanted to see the world
her parents were poor and they couldn’t afford
to send her away for a whirl
she waited until they slept and into the night she
crept
with only the stars and the cold light of mars
ginny took off like a jet
she rode through the sky like an elephant’s eye
like the stars in a thundering herd
and when she came down
all the world had turned ’round
all that the groundpeople heard
was ‘oh, for the life of a bird’
she lived in a tiny room
surrounded by huge balloons
the covers would fly past her magical eye
and the pillows soluted the moon
at night when the lights went out
she’d take to the sky and shout
‘hey milky way, lead me on ’til the day
‘says h-llo to the night’s turnabout’
she rode through the sky like an elephant’s eye
like the stars in a thundering herd
and when she came down
all the world had turned ’round
all that the groundpeople heard
was ‘oh, for the life of a bird’
whenever the world won’t bend
whenever i need a friend
i just close my eyes and i reach for the sky
and i know i can make it again
whenever my dreams run dry
just when i need to cry
whenever it all looks too big, or too tall
i remember that i can fly
she rode through the sky like an elephant’s eye
like the stars in a thundering herd
and when she came down
all the world had turned ’round
all that the groundpeople heard
was ‘oh, for the life of a bird’
oh, for the life of a bird
oh, for the life of a bird…
