When I Fly
by @zinglizh
Liner Notes
#folk #skirmish I wrote the basic lyrics to this last FAWM in a Skirmish "Flying" and now I have added music and vocals.
Lyrics
With each beat of my wings I soar higher Filled with a sense of wonder Connected to something greater Vastness of the sky Oooo I’m alive when I fly
When I fly When I fly Ooooh I’m alive
The world’s a panorama of textures With fields, forests, and rivers A kaleidoscope of colors Cities in clusters
A patchwork of shapes Ever-changing landscapes
Oh when I fly When I fly Ooooh I’m alive
Wind rushes past Freedom of weightlessness exhilarates my soul Soaring’s possible Untethered from gravity, worries leave me
When I fly When I fly Oooo I’m alive when I fly When I fly When I fly Oooo I’m alive when I fly

The musicality in this is superb, I couldn't believe that it was done in a skirmish, then I read again and realised my mistake. That would have been very impressive if you had done that all in a hour 😂. The lyrics are wonderful but the music is something else, I loved the flute.

Great lyrics, but I'm really digging the music! What a lovely mix of Celtic rhythms and flute riffs. They are so soaring. Wow!
