(Willcox / Bogen / Bush / Francis / Bray)
He runs to the water's edge
To feel the sea
To smell the air
To feel he's free
He does not really need to see
To this unhappy child
He's a no - no
No, no he cannot see
Told about water
Told about fire (it bites)
Told about birds
They're wild and free
They're everything he dreams to be
Everything his mind can see
No, no, no, no, no, no
No, no you'll never see
Never see water
Animals slaughtered
Never see daylight
Never see fire
Alone in the dark
His mind sets him free
He becomes wild and free
Birds in the trees
I see they can breathe fire
I see, I see my mother
She's a liar
I'm flying higher
Screaming to my mother
You're a liar
Yes!
I'm a yes yes
Now my eyes can see
Up through the clouds
Swoop past the sea
Through my bedroom window
Over the city
To my home in the sky
I wanna cry
A letter to mum says
"Goodbye Mum"
This is goodbye
Remember how I cried
You said I lied
You didn't believe me
You didn't believe me
I could walk through walls
Grow ten feet tall
Touch the ceiling
Be a special child
I rise to my feet
Walk through my wall
Turn the corner
Grow ten feet tall
I run to the water's edge
I'm standing on the cliff edge
I run back
Back a few feet
I turn
I turn around
I run
I run to the cliff edge
Run to the cliff edge
Run to the cliff edge
Run to the cliff edge
I'm a bird in flight
I'm a bird in flight
I'm wild
I'm free
I'm wild
I'm free
A bird in flight (I'm wild)
A bird in flight (I'm free)
A bird in flight (I'm wild)
A bird in flight (I'm free).
Toyah è il nome del gruppo musicale guidato da Toyah Willcox tra il 1977 e il 1983. L'unico altro membro fisso della band durante questo periodo è stato Joel Bogen, principale co-autore e chitarrista di Willcox. Il loro sound si caratterizzava per un mix di new wave, punk rock e synthpop, con influenze teatrali e una forte componente visiva. Toyah raggiunse il successo commerciale negli anni '80 con singoli come "It's a Mystery" e "I Want to Be Free", che divennero delle hit nelle classifiche britanniche. La band si sciolse nel 1983, ma Toyah Willcox ha continuato la sua carriera musicale in solitario, pubblicando album e collaborando con diversi artisti.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
