It is not easy to look at life in the eyes 
Not easy to feel happy 
When you get up early in the morning 
To go and catch your train 
Pack your suitcase 
Leave behind the grey houses and go on your way 

Fly fly fly 
Go to a country where it's sunny all the time 
Fly fly fly to new continents 
Fly fly fly, I say again to you, here you're wasting your time 
And watch out for where the wind blows 

It is not easy to drop everything just like that 
Especially the one that you hold in your arms 
But he who doesn't try 
only goes wrong one time 
So go and turn the corner 
Turn the page for me 
And go your way 

Fly fly fly 
Fly well in the time that now remains for you 
Give yourself a good reason 
Down there the music sounds sounds sounds 
Clashes and still echos back on the radio 
Fly fly fly 
You'll see that the wind is right 

You are more at peace if you live like someone old, and that's good 
It is funnier to fall in love 
with a girl or a country 
Who will make you happy 
Let your life 
Turn turn turn around 

Dance dance dance 
In the clubs where it's packed, and where there's life 
Dance dance dance 
When you dances you forget 
Down there music sounds sounds 
Clashes and still echos on the radio 
Dance dance dance 
You will see that I am right 
Go to a country where it's sunny all the time 
Fly fly fly to the new continents 
I say again to you, here you're wasting your time 
Watch out where the wind blows 
In the clubs where it's packed, and where there's life 
When you dance you forgets 
Down there music sounds sounds 
Clashes and still echos on the radio 
Dance dance dance 
You will see as I am right 

Dance, dance,dance, 
Do as you feel 
Dance, dance, dance, 
Do what you want...
