Let 'Em Fly
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Ain't no talkin' 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
I'm gonna let him fly - mmm
Things can move at such a pace
The second hand just waved good-bye
You know the light has left his face
But you can't recall just where or why
So there was reallly nothing to it
I just went and cut right through it
I said I'm gonna let him fly
Ooo yea
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 - yeah
But you must always know
how long to stay and when to go
And there ain't no talkin' to this man
He's been tryin' to tell me so
It took a while to understand
the beauty of just letting go
'Cause it would take an acrobat n'
I already tried all that
i'm gonna let him fly
I'm gonna let him fly - fly woah
I'm gonna let him fly - fly woah
I'm gonna let him fly.
