Copied!

{intro}
This song is from an album called station to station and it's called-- i'm singing all the tough ones in the beginning, i can't believe i've done this, oh well-- it's called "word on a wing"

{verse 1}
In this age of grand delusion
You walked into my life out of my dreams
I don't need another change
Still you forced a way into my scheme of things
You say we're growing
Growing heart and soul
In this age of grand delusion
You walked into my life out of my dreams

{pre-chorus}
Oh sweet name, you're born once again for me
Oh sweet name, you're born once again for me
Oh sweet name, i call you again
You're born once again
Just because i believe don't mean i don't think as well
Don't have to question everything in heaven or hell

{chorus}
Lord, i kneel and offer you my word on a wing
And i'm trying hard to fit among your scheme of things
It's safer than a strange land, but i still care for myself
And i don't stand in my own light
Lord, oh lord, my prayer flies like a word on a wing
My prayer flies like a word on a wing
Does my prayer fit in with your scheme of things?

{verse 2}
In this age of grand delusion
You walked into my life out of my dreams
Oh sweet name, you're born once again for me
Just as long as i can see
I'll never stop this vision flowing
I look twice and still you're glowing
Just as long as i can walk i'll walk beside you
I'm alive in you
Oh sweet name, you're born once again for me
And i'm ready to shape the scheme of things

{bridge}
Ooh, ready to shape the scheme of things
Ooh, ready ready ready
Ooh, ready to shape the scheme of things
Ooh, ready ready ready
Ooh...

{chorus}
Lord, i kneel and offer you my word on a wing
And i'm trying hard to fit among your scheme of things
It's safer than a strange land, but i still care for myself
And i don't stand in my own light
Oh, oh lord, lord, my prayer flies like a word on a wing
And, and i'm trying hard to fit among your scheme of things
It's safer than a strange land, but i still care for myself
And i don't stand in my own light
Lord, oh lord, my prayer flies like a word on a wing
My prayer flies like a word on a wing
Does my prayer fit in with your scheme of things?

{outro}

Biography

David Bowie, born David Robert Jones in 1947, was a British musician who became one of the most iconic rock stars in history. Known for his ever-changing appearance and musical style, Bowie's career spanned several decades and resulted in an acclaimed discography that rivaled the likes of The Beatles and Bob Dylan.

Bowie's early career was marked by a series of missteps, but he rose to prominence with the release of his most famous song, "Space Oddity," which coincided with the Apollo 11 moon landing. Despite this breakthrough, Bowie remained a cult figure until he introduced the character Ziggy Stardust in 1972, solidifying his place in the public consciousness.

Throughout his career, Bowie continued to experiment with new musical directions and personas, including collaborations with artists like Brian Eno and Tony Visconti. His "Berlin Trilogy" of albums, recorded in the late 1970s, remains some of his most critically acclaimed work.

In the 1980s, Bowie experienced a period of critical apathy, but he staged a comeback in the 1990s with albums like "1. Outside," "Earthling," and "Heathen." After a period of relative silence, Bowie surprised fans with the release of "The Next Day" in 2013, which was met with critical acclaim.

Tragically, David Bowie passed away on January 10, 2016, just two days after his 69th birthday and the release of his final album, "Blackstar." Throughout his career, Bowie's influence on music and culture was immense, solidifying his legacy as one of the greatest musicians of all time.
