Let Him Fly

[Verse] Ain't no talking to this man Ain't no pretty other side Ain't no way to understand the stupid words of pride It would take an acrobat and I already tried all that So I'm going to let him fly Things can move at such a pace The second hand just waved goodbye And though the light has left his face But you can't recall just where or why So there was really nothing to it I just went and cut right through it I said I'm going to let him fly There's no mercy in a live wire No rest at all in freedom Choices we are given It's no choice at all The proof is in the fire You touch before it moves away But you must always know How long to stay and when to go And there ain't no talking to this man He's been trying to tell me so It took a while to understand The beauty of just letting go Cause it would take an acrobat and I already tried all that [Outro] I'm going to let him fly[x3]
