John Waite - Fly Lyrics

For so long, you've gone on
Trying to see an end to it all
But I know, that your grip is getting loose

And you think, if you leave
The pain will go away
But you don't know what you need
To get through

'Cause I can tell by the things you say
that your feelings will never change
You keep coming back
To what you think is real

'Cause it's okay to wanna be free
And it's okay, to spread your wings
If you know how to fly, if you know to feel alive
So, for now, you go on

Crawling along for a while
You're dragging me down
You're holding me back
You're making it end

'Cause I can tell by the things you say
That your feelings will never change
You keep coming back
To what you think is real

'Cause it's okay to wanna be free
It's okay to spread your wings
If you know how to fly
If you know how to feel alive

You can fly
You can fly
You can fly

It's okay to wanna be free
It's okay to spread your wings
If you know how to fly
If you know how to feel alive

And it's okay to close your eyes
And it's okay to fade away
Don't wanna stay?
If you don't think that you'll survive

You can fly
You can fly
You can fly

You can fly
'Cause you can fly
You can fly
You can fly
