Pienso que un sueño parecido no volverá más...
¡Volaré, ohohoho cantaré!

En siglos pasados los humanos siempre soñaban de volar como los pájaros, hasta el avión vino y cambió nuestro mundo.
Yuri Gagarin fue la primera persona quien volar en espacio.

En España es incorrecto decir "arriba de", hay que decir "encima de":

En un avión puedes volar (por) encima de las nubes.

Gracias amiga!

Quisiera sobrevuelo las montañas altas y los rios bajos
Al sitio donde mis sueños pueden llegar a ser
Nunca volver a la vida aburrida
De la que me acostumbro

supongo que es un principio a un poema

A bit better :

Quisiera sobrevolar las altas montañas y los hundidos ríos
hasta llegar al sitio donde mis sueños podrían llegar a ser.
Nunca volver a la vida aburrida
a la que me acostumbro.

En español no se utiliza la mayúscula al principio del verso, salvo que sea inicio de frase.
