Fly Lyrics by John Waite

Figure in a Landscape

0

For so long, you've gone on
Trying to see an end to it all
But I know that your grip, is getting loose
And you think, if you leave
The pain will go away, but you don't know what you need
To get through
'Cuz I can tell by the things you say, that your feelings will never change
You keep coming back to what you think is real
'Cuz it's ok to wanna be free
And it's ok, to spread your wings
If you know how to fly, if you know to feel alive

So for now, you go on
Crawling along for a while
You're dragging me down, you're holding me back, you're making it end
'Cuz I can tell by the things you say, that your feelings will never change
You keep coming back to what you think is real
'Cuz it's ok to wanna be free, it's ok to spread your wings
If you know how to fly, if you know how to feel alive

You can fly
You can fly
You can fly

It's ok to wanna be free, it's ok to spread your wings
If you know how to fly, if you know how to feel alive
And it's ok, to close your eyes, and it's ok to fade away
Don't wanna stay, if you don't think that you'll survive

You can fly
You can fly
You can fly
You can fly
'Cuz you can fly, you can fly, you can fly
