Lyrics

 
sometimes i wonder about the way things are
if love and hate are walkin' hand in hand
i look around the world and see - so many are wrong
everything within the touch of Man
 
now look at the children
its there inside their eyes
they can see so clearly, i'm amazed
but we were all like they are - once - not that long ago
it seems as we grow older
we lose grace
 
     oh the yearning - oh i feel inside
     ooh this yearning - oh to let the spirit fly
     let the spirit fly
 
the spirit's crying out - it longs to be let go
the hands are reaching up to touch the sky
you want to know the answers
to the questions you have asked
you want to know the truth beyond the lies
 
     oh the yearning - oh i feel inside
     ooh this yearning - oh to let the spirit fly
 
        oh it's deep inside you - let it fly, let it fly, let it fly
        fly above
