I'll Fly Away

Fly away, gonna fly away

Fly away, gonna fly away baby

Boy let's talk about

All the things that change because

I can see the pain in your eyes

Oh baby

Why pretend it's real

'Cause I see how you really feel

Ain't no point in living with lies

It's the heart that's in love

In the dawn, can't you see my love

And I'm just so tired of being

Strong (so strong)

On and on

'Cause if you love me

Like you say you did

You'd tell me I'm wrong

I know it's hard for me to say

I just can't sleep this life away

Oh baby

We slip further everyday

I long that we fly away

Because we can't seem to change things

Just touching like strangers

And you've got the key,

please let me fly away

Boy don't talk about

Reasons just to work it out

Heaven must be passing us by

Oh baby

I just came to see

This love just ain't meant to be

Some things don't get better with time

Because Mamma would say

'Child you've got to hold to love'

She couldn't dream it slipped away

I'm happy to say

'Cause there's someone I just gotta be

But you won't let me change

I know it's hard for me to say

I just can't sleep this life away

Oh baby

We slip further everyday

I long that we fly away

Because we can't seem to change things

Just touching like strangers

And you've got the key,

Please let me fly away

Love left long ago

And I can't find the words to fit anymore

So why can't we fly

And I'll carry on

I'll make it baby all on my own

I know it's hard for me to say

I just can't sleep this life away

Oh baby

We slip further everyday

I long that we fly away
