La Libert
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 so
i'm gonna let him fly
things can move at such a pace, the second hand just waved goodbye
you know 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 gonna let him fly
there's no mercy in a live wire, no rest at all in freedom
of the 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 1ong 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 awhile to understand the beauty of just letting go
cause it would take an acrobat, i already tried all that
i'm gonna let him fly
i'm gonna let him fly
i'm gonna let him fly
