    Lyrics »

Some of us will have to lose
and some will have to win,
But to know just where to go
you must know where you've been.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
there's nothing left to lose,
Except to find out for yourself
the things you always knew.

If you want to fly
like the bird on the wind,
You've got to give it,
give it everything.

If you want to fly
like the bird on the wind,
You've got to give it,
give it everything.

Don't you think it's strange the way
the mood can come and go?
One day you are riding high,
the next you're riding low.
Everyone has something special
that is truly theirs,
So to make the highest good
we all must learn to share.

If you want to fly
like the bird on the wind,
You've got to give it,
give it everything.

If you want to fly
like the bird on the wind,
You've got to give it,
give it everything.

Some of us will have to lose
and some will have to win,
But to know just where to go
you must know where you've been.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
there's nothing left to lose,
Except to find out for yourself
the things you always knew.

If you want to fly
like the bird on the wind,
You've got to give it,
give it everything.

If you want to fly
like the bird on the wind,
You've got to give it,
give it everything.
