Country music singer-songwriter Blaze Foley (1949-1989) wrote “If I Could Only Fly” in March of 1977. 

I almost felt you touching me just now
I wish I knew which way to turn and go
I feel so good, and then I feel so bad
I wonder what I ought to do 

 If I could only fly, if I could only fly 
I'd bit this place goodbye to come and be with you
but I can hardly stand, I got nowhere to run
Another sinking sun, another lonely night

The wind keeps blowing somewhere everyday
Tell me things get better, somewhere up the way
Just dismal thinking on a dismal day
Sad songs for us to bear

If I could only fly, if we could only fly 
If I could only fly,  there be no more lonely night

You know sometimes I write happy songs
But then sometimes little things went wrong
You know I wish they all could make you smile
Tomorrow maybe we can get away
I'm coming home soon and I wanna stay
I wish you could come with me when I go again

If I could only fly, if I could only fly
I'd bid this place goodbye to come and be with you
But I can hardly stand, I got nowhere to run
Another sinking sun, one more lonely night
