John Miles Ready To Spread Your Wings lyrics

Days may come and days may go
Funny how the children grow so fast
Nothing can last, always try and try we will
Nothing ever standing still for long, is it all wrong?

Time, tell me where you've flown?
Wind where have you blown?
Taking us along and changing as you go
Everything we know like the rivers flow
What have we to show

Ready to spread your wings and fly away
It doesn't seem right somehow, I know you're older now
And why do we need tomorrow here today?
Haven't the years been kind, did we get left behind?

Once a house and then a home
Overnight the kids have gone somehow
Just look at them now, they want it all and just can't wait
One more day could be too late for sure finding the door

World, so much more to see, always young and free

Keep me company, the places in your mind
You may never find, still you've got to try
Your chances passing by

Oh, ready to spread your wings and fly away
It doesn't seem right somehow, I know you're older now
And why do we need tomorrow here today
Haven't the years been kind, did we get left behind?

World, so much more to see, always young and free
Keep me company, the places in your mind
You may never find, still you've got to try
Your chances passing by

Oh, ready to spread your wings and fly away
Doesn't seem right somehow, I know you're older now
And why do we need tomorrow here today
Haven't the years been kind, did we get left behind?
