Fly Away

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Daughter Bird, Mother Bird] Oh, must this be Is this the end? After this day, will I really leave these things behind? Don't you cry Look at the sky, oh Can't you see it smiling down at you? No, I thought we would be forever Why must we end this way? But dearest child, you can't look back You've lived your whole life for this day [Chorus: Mother Bird] Sometimes it's painful, I know Watching these memories die But 'til you've learned to let you go You'll never know how to fly Birds don't forget how to sing No matter how far they might stray Don't you know there are somе things That time can't take away from you? [Verse 2: Mother Bird] Child, you must know this nest is Only a placе to rest and learn Learn to be strong Someday when you have flown This I always have known I'll pray you find a place you belong [Chorus: Mother Bird] Yes it's painful, I know Watching these memories die But wherever you go We're both under the same blue sky You must go, you must leave this nest Take flight, see the very best Of life, seek out that echoing song [Bridge: Child Bird, Mother Bird] Am I ready, am I too weak? Will I find this song I seek? Somehow I fear to lose my way How can I let the wind whisk me away? (How can I let the wind whisk you away?) Trust yourself You've taught me well Take the sky Trust your compass [Chorus: Mother BIrd, Child Bird, Both] Yes it's painful, I know Watching these memories die But 'til you've learned to let go You'll never know how to fly Birds don't forget how to sing No matter how far they might stray Don't you know there are some things That time can't take away? I'll learn to let go These memories don't have to die 'Cause wherever I go ('Cause wherever you go) We're under the same blue sky You have taught me to sing And someday I'll find you that song This is farewell, I suppose But who said this is the end? So long
