One Day I'll Fly Away


This song was written by Joe Sample and Will Jennings, and performed by Randy Crawford in 1980. But I first heard Regine Velasquez sing it a few years ago, and it was her cover that inspired my song poem. Subsequently I found out that Nicole Kidman sang this song as well, while watching the lavish film "Moulin Rouge."
