Valerie has wings, you see but she don't fly around
No, Valerie walks beside me with both feet on the ground
And secretly, when she's asleep I'm learning how to fly
So one day I will join her in the sky
She's okay with summer days spent lying in the grass
And celebrating mortal ways to watch white clouds pass
Valerie had the capacity to see it from above
She gave it up for love
Valerie has wings, you see but she don't fly around
No, Valerie walks beside me with both feet on the ground
And secretly, when she's asleep I'm learning how to fly
And one day I will join her in the sky
