Fly Away - Corrinne May


"When will you be home?" 
she asksas we watch the planes take off

We both know we have no clear answer
to where my dreams may lead

She's watched me as i crawled and stumbled
As a child, she was my world
And now to let me go, I know she bleeds
and yet she says to me

You can fly so high
Keep your gaze upon the sky
I'll be prayin every step along the way

Even though it breaks my heart 
to know we'll be so far apart

I love you too much to make you stay
Baby fly away

Autumn leaves fell into spring time
and SIlver-painted hair

Daddy called one evening saying
"We need you. Please come back"

When I saw her laying in her bed
Fragile as a child
Pale just like an angel taking flight
I held her as I cried

You can fly so high
Keep your gaze upon the sky
I'll be prayin every step along the way
Even though it breaks my heart 
to know we'll be so far apart

I love you too much to make you stay
Baby fly away
