C             F             C           F
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
Dm                G
When I hear that soft refrain
                C        F
And I hear you gently sigh

Chorus:
   G                       C
I wanna take you where flamingoes fly
Flamingoes fly
Dm
Way over yonder in the clear blue sky
            C
That's where flamingoes fly

Lie in the dark with the sweet sound
of the nightingale
And listen for a 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

Chorus

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

Chorus:
I wanna, wanna take you where flamingoes fly
Flamingoes fly (Mmm hmm)
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
You see those, you see those, you see those
You see those, you see those, you see those
flamingoes fly
Look over yonder, look over yonder, darling
Look over yonder, darling
You take it by the ocean
You take it, you take it by the ocean
