Bill Osofsky songs
A repost BACK WHEN PIGS COULD FLY Al Carmichael vocal (verse) I looked at her through starry eyes when we met at nineteen I was shy and awkward, she was last year's high school queen She could see the world in me Though I never could see why And somehow, that girl married me, back when pigs could fly (verse) My job kept getting bigger, the two kids came along It's like I dined on golden eggs and nothing could go wrong I sailed my dreams down chocolate streams And rainbows filled the sky It was all a fantasy, back when pigs could fly (bridge) Maybe fantasies are made for kids I cooked my goose with some foolish things I did Didn't know what a fairy tale was worth 'Til everything kept crashing back to earth (verse) Those pigs stop by to visit me when shadows come around But like the life I hunger for they can't get off the ground I see those years through useless tears And hear her last goodbye Those words that blew my straw house down, back when pigs could fly. Yeah, it was all a fantasy, back when pigs could fly Bill Osofsky, BMI, Al Carmicheal, ASCAP copyright
