Let Him Fly

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
Im gonna let him fly
Im gonna let him fly
