In my younger days I was flying free That's before there was you and me I love 'em and I leave 'em And you changed everything Oh, who the hell needs wings I don't need a reason to chase freedom I found something I can believe in Seeing what I'm seeing Is like nothing I've ever seen Who the hell needs wings I'm so sick of sleeping In the same old bed Just tossin' and turnin' in the sheets I know it's not a palace But I've got some bread Just enough to afford a queen I don't need a reason to chase freedom I found something I can believe in Seeing what I'm seeing Is like nothin' I've ever seen Who the hell needs wings I don't need a reason to chase freedom I found something I can believe in Seeing what I'm seeing Is like nothing I have ever seen Who the hell needs wings Who the hell needs wings In my younger days I was flying free Oh, who the hell needs wings
