I'm gonna exchange my things for precious wings and fly,
Over the valley of the kings and the queens where the sleeping cities lie.
One bright night, I'm gonna fly right out my window.
Gonna fly so high in the night sky that the people below won't see me go by.
Gonna fly all around, and smile down on the sleeping countryside.
Fly all around, never come down till Soloman takes another bride.
Then I'm gonna exchange my precious wings for things and die....
Over the valley of the kings and the queens where the sleeping cities lie.
One bright night I gonna fly right out my window.
Gonna fly so high in the night sky that the people below won't see me go by.
Gonna fly all around, and smile down on the sleeping countryside.
Fly all around, never come down till Soloman takes another bride.
Then I'm gonna exchange my precious wings for things and die....
Over the valley of the kings and the queens where the sleeping cities lie.
One bright night I gonna fly right out my window.
Gonna fly so high in the night sky that the people below won't see me go by.
