Lyr. Add: WINGS OF A DOVE (Marley)

If I had the wings of a dove,
If I had the wings of a dove,
Well, I would fly, fly away, fly away
And be at rest.
Fly away!

Since I have no wings, since I have no wings,
Since I have no wings, I'm gonna sing, sing, sing,
Since I have no wings, since I have no wings,
Since I have no wings, I'm gonna sing, sing, sing.

If I had the wings of a dove,
If I had the wings of a dove,
I would fly, fly away, fly away
And be at rest.

Since I have no wings, since I have no wings,
Since I have no wings, I'm gonna sing, sing, sing.
Since I have no wings, since I have no wings,
Since I have no wings, I'm gonna sing, sing, sing.

If I had the wings of a dove,
Imagine!

If I had the wings of a dove,
Well I would fly, fly away, fly away
And I would be at rest,
And I would be at rest.

Bob Marley and the Wailers. I took this down from a recording (45?)that has disappeared.
Can anyone add to it? Or correct it?

Good gravy, I knew this song as "Oh Pompey Day," first sung to me by my aunt when I was about four! I've wondered where it came from ever since, never for a MOMENT suspecting it was reggae. (My very-white, very-midwestern aunt did not exactly sing it like Marley, I'm guessing...)
