Let Him Fly

Album:A Public Affair

Aint no talkin to this man

Aint no pretty other side

Aint no way to understand the stupid words of pride

It would take an acrobat, and I already tried all that so

Im 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 cant recall just where or why

So there was really nothing to it

I just went and cut right through it

I said Im gonna let him fly

Theres no mercy in a live wire

No rest at all in freedom

Of the choices we are given its 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 aint no talkin to this man

Hes 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

Im gonna let him fly fly fly fly Im gonna let him fly fly
