Fly away, gonna fly away   Fly away, gonna fly away baby      Boy let's talk about   All the things that change because   I can see the pain in your eyes   Oh baby   Why pretend it's real   'cause I see how you really feel   Ain't no point in living with lies   It's the heart that's in love   In the dawn, can't you see my love   And I'm just so tired of being   Strong (so strong)   On and on   'cause if you love me   Like you say you did   You'd tell me I'm wrong      I know it's hard for me to say   I just can't sleep this life away   Oh baby   We slip further everyday   I long that we fly away   Because we can't seem to change things   Just touching like strangers   And you've got the key,   Please let me fly away      Boy don't talk about   Reasons just to work it out   Heaven must be passing us by   Oh baby   I just came to see   This love just ain't meant to be   Some things don't get better with time   Because mamma would say   'child you've got to hold to love'   She couldn't dream it slipped away   I'm happy to say   'cause there's someone I just gotta be   But you won't let me change      I know it's hard for me to say   I just can't sleep this life away   Oh baby   We slip further everyday   I long that we fly away   Because we can't seem to change things   Just touching like strangers   And you've got the key,   Please let me fly away      Love left long ago   And I can't find the words to fit anymore   So why can't we fly   And I'll carry on   I'll make it baby all on my own      I know it's hard for me to say   I just can't sleep this life away   Oh baby   We slip further everyday   I long that we fly away
