about

This is a song contrasting fantasy vs reality in a love relationship

lyrics

When Pigs Fly
Verse 1
So I’d dream about me and you
Coming back and starting a new
You saying, “I was dishonest and wrong,
Sorry baby you were right all along.”
Hoping for some change in your soul
Promising not to let me go
Perfect, like a princess
Hey, hey

Pre-chorus
The clock ticked on
My patience had gone
I’m thinking to myself…..

Chorus
You’re like trying to teach a pig to fly
Up in that ba-loo-loo sky
You’re never gonna happen, but hey
Why not try?
You’re like waiting for the sunshine
In the darkest time of night
Twelve o’clock to be exact
You’re never gonna happen
It’s just fact
Just a fact(2x)
Oh, oh, but I still keep on dreamin’

Verse 2
So I’m guessing it’s all over and done
Although running back to me would be fun
So I’m gonna have to let you go,
But my heart is saying no, no, no
Why is this so hard to do?
Cause all I’d get is the same old you
Erasing all your dumb ol’ games
Yay, yay

Pre-chorus
Time moves on
I’m glad you’re gone
Fixing you is like

Chorus
Trying to teach a pig to fly
Up in that ba-loo-loo sky
You’re never gonna happen, but hey
Why not try?
You’re like waiting for the sunshine
In the darkest time of night
Twelve o’clock to be exact
You’re never gonna happen
It’s just fact
Just a fact(2x)
But I still keep on dreamin’

Bridge
Now I never said, that dreams didn’t come true
Because they do, just not with you
And fantasy can become reality
It’s all about what prince you chose and the shoes you use

(Chorus)
I’m trying to teach a pig to fly
In the blue sky….Oh, oh
It’s like waiting for the sunshine
In the darkest time of night
Twelve o’clock to be exact…
It’s just a fact, just a fact…Oh, oh…
You’re never coming back (2x)
Oh, oh
Boy you’re never coming back
