Lyrics
when i was a little girl
i sat at my window every night
and dreamed about flying away
then i would tuck myself into bed
and dream until the next day
then one night as i sat on the sill,
the moon and stars were shining so bright
i flung that window open,
grabbed a bouquet of balloons,
and set off on my flight.
[chorus]
oooooooo hoooooo ooooo hooo ooo hooo
this journey is exciting
this world so inviting
let's take off and explore
this magical world
and i just want to see more
and i just want to see
i just want to see more
[verse 2]
The wind carried me
the wind carried me, in my nightdress
up, up, up
to the stars and the moon
with my little toes dangling below me,
away i flew
With my bouquet of balloons.
i flew over my neighbor's house,
then over the twinkling lights of the city.
i flew over rivers, lakes and trees.
from up there, everything looked so pretty.
[chorus]
oooooooo hoooooo ooooo hooo ooo hooo
this journey is exciting
this world so inviting
let's take off and explore
this magical world
and i just want to see more
and i just want to see
i just want to see more
[verse 3]
i flew over farmlands with cows and chickens
then over parks with beautiful fountains,
I crossed over great, wide oceans
and floated over snow-capped mountains.
i never wanted to touch the ground
so i continued on my way.
if you look up in the sky you just might see me
flying with my balloon bouquet.
[chorus]
oooooooo hoooooo ooooo hooo ooo hooo
this journey is exciting
this world so inviting
let's take off and explore
this magical world
and i just want to see more
and i just want to see
i just want to see more
[bridge]
Ooooh ooooh oooooh
This journey is exciting
This world is so inviting
And I’m never coming down
Never coming no never coming no never coming down
(Never coming down)
Never coming down
[chorus]
oooooooo hoooooo ooooo hooo ooo hooo
this journey is exciting
this world so inviting
let's take off and explore
this magical world
and i just want to see more
and i just want to see
i just want to see more
