Let Him Fly

Let Him Fly - The Chicks

Written by：Patty Griffin

Ain't no talkin' to this man

Ain't no pretty other side

Ain't no way to understand the stupid words of pride

It would take an acrobat and I already tried all that

I'm gonna let him fly mmm

Things can move at such a pace

The second hand just waved goodbye

You know the light has left his face

But you can't recall just where or why

So there was really nothing to it

I just went and cut right through it

I said I'm gonna let him fly

Oh yeah

There's no mercy in a live wire

No rest at all in freedom

Choices we are givin

It's no choice at all

The proof is in the fire

You touch before it moves away yeah

But you must always know

How long to stay and when to go

And there ain't no talkin' to this man

He's been trying to tell me so

It took a while to understand

The beauty of just letting go

Cause it would take an acrobat n'

I already tried all that

I'm gonna let him fly

I'm gonna let him fly fly

I'm gonna let him fly fly

I'm gonna let him fly
