Flamingoes Fly - Van Morrison

Lie by my side in the still of the night

And morning brings forth all it’s wondrous delight

You couldn’t have made it more plain

When I hear that soft refrain

And I hear you gently sigh

I wanna take you where flamingoes fly, flamingoes fly

Way over yonder in the clear blue sky

That’s where flamingoes fly

Lie in the dark with the sweet sound of the nightingale

And listen for lark, and I will tell you a tale

Soft winds blowin', blowin' outside

I wanna take that moonlight ride

When I hear you gently sigh

I wanna take you where flamingoes fly, flamingoes fly

Way over yonder, yeah in the clear blue sky

That’s where flamingoes fly

Silently waiting for that morning light to shine

Yeah, and I’m looking at you, looking at me

And I’m looking at you

And anticipating

Each and every, each and every sign

And I’m looking at you, looking at me

And I’m looking at you, looking at me

Looking at you, looking at me, looking at you

I follow the road that will take me, take me back home

And carry that load where the deer and the provincial angels roam

Happiness touches me now

Who knows where it came from and how, but

When I hear you gently sigh

I wanna, wanna take you where flamingoes fly, flamingoes fly

Way over yonder in the clear blue sky

That’s where flamingoes fly, flamingoes fly

Way over yonder in the clear blue sky

That’s where flamingoes fly

You see those flamingoes fly

Ya see those, ya see those, ya see those

Ya see those, ya see those, ya see those flamingoes fly

Look over yonder, look over yonder, darling

Look over yonder, darling

Ya take it by the ocean, ya take it, ya take it by the ocean

Mmm uhhh, take it by the ocean
