LET ME BE YOUR WINGS (THUMBELINA, 1994)

Crooner Barry Manilow (sang with Debra Byrd) the love theme of the 1994 Don Bluth production of Thumbelina, Let Me Be Your Wings. Though the animated flick received a lukewarm response from audiences, the song nevertheless ups the production's ante if only for a bit.


LET ME BE YOUR WINGS
sung by: Barry Manilow & Debra Byrd


Let me be your wings

Let me be your only love

Let me take you far beyond the stars


Let me be your wings

Let me lift you high above

Everything we’re dreaming of will soon be ours


Anything that you desire

Anything at all

Everyday I’ll take you higher

And I’ll never let you fall


Let me be your wings

Leave behind the world you know

For another world of wonderous things

We’ll see the universe and dance on Saturns’s rings

Fly with me and I will be your wings


Anything that you desire

Anything at all

Everyday I’ll take you higher

And I’ll never let you fall


(You will be my wings)

Let me be your wings

(You will be my only love)

Get ready for a world of wonderous things

(Wonderous things are sure to happen)

We’ll see the universe and dance on Saturn’s rings


Heaven isn’t too far

Heaven is where you are

Stay with me and let me be your wings
