Let Him Fly

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

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

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 long to stay and when to go

I am gonna let him FLY
