Fly Away Lyrics

[Intro]
Cool, aye

[Verse 1]
I'd love to be the one to break your heart
But someone else is taking up the spot
It's my fault I know I took too long for you and now you're gone
Everything was right, but I was wrong
But I don't want another broken promise
Changed myself for you, yeah baby
I'm just being honest
Look at all the stars
Look at all the comets
Then look in the mirror
I should be there right beside ya

[Chorus]
(yeah)
Don't fly away from me
What's left for me now
If you say that you love me
Lift my feet off the ground
Don't fly away from me
What's left for me now
If you say that you love me
Lift my feet off the ground
[Verse 2]
Love to be the one to read your mind (read your mind)
But that is not a special skill of mine
Lately I've been feelin' insignificant
I don't know why
But listen to me read between the lines
And understand what I been sayin'
Nothin' been the same since I saw you
Done with all the lies
Yeah it's all true
And I don't know what they sayin'
Know you've been dreaming about me
Like every second you sleeping and it's getting

[Bridge]
Too late, I just spilt my cup
When you done with him just hit me up yeah
And I know that we got time to grow
But, sometimes when you know you know (yeah)

[Chorus]
Don't fly away from me
What's left for me now
If you say that you love me
Lift my feet off the ground
Don't fly away from me
What's left for me now
If you say that you love me
Lift my feet off the ground

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

Fly Away tells the story of falling out of love and reflecting on what could’ve been. It’s a very vulnerable song and I think can relate to many other people dealing with heartbreak and the uncertainties of love.
