There was a time   I think it was December   Just like a fire   I lost my mind   And this I do remember   I was a child   Pretty and wild   I thought I was an angel      Oh, what a day   Wonderful day   I know that God, he heard me pray   Oh, on that day   He heard me say   I'll spread my wings and fly away      Just like the sky   I don't like stormy weather   Cause it's the power   That I once knew   And it makes me feel better   I have a child   Pretty and wild   And this I'm gonna tell her      Oh, what a day   Wonderful day   I know that God, he heard me pray   Oh, on that day   He heard me say   I'll spread my wings and fly away      Fly away   Fly away      When I grow old   I know I won't forget that I'm still that child   Pretty and wild   In this late December   I'll fly away   The story remains   And I hope you will remember      You're an angel   Everybody sing   We're all angels   And together we can fly away      Oh, what a day   Wonderful day   I know that God, he heard me pray   Oh, on that day   He heard me say   I'll spread my wings and fly away      Oh, what a day   Wonderful day   I know that God, he heard me pray   Oh, on that day   He heard me say   I'll spread my wings and fly away.
