Fly Lyrics by ​The Jam

All Mod Cons

1978

[Verse 1]
The way that sunlight flits across your skirt
Makes me feel I'm from another world
To touch your face in the morning light
I hope you're always gonna be around
The times I struggle to understand why
The ancient proverbs like who am I?
Why am I here and what have I done?
I see the answer's place my trust in you

[Chorus 1]
Trust in you, love, be with me then
That's when I want you, that's when I need you the most

[Verse 2]
I want us to be like Peter Pan
But dreams it seems are weightless as sand
And man's supposedly is made of sand
It seems that man cannot survive at all

[Chorus 2]
Let's disappear, love, let's fly away
Into the demi-monde, into the twilight zone

[Verse 3]
The times inside I spent screaming at you
Release me please from this mortal jail
One shrug or smile can determine my fate
I'm lost for days and have myself to blame

[Outro]
Something I'm giving
Said is yours for the taking
Something like sunlight
Love is a spotlight
Love is all sorrow
Still I'll meet you tomorrow
And look forward to see you
Now I can't live without you
