Learn to Fly

Well here we are now

On the ground, with the stars all around

My heart is beating loud

When I saw you in that dress

Sudden stress came to live in my head

Once I speak will I have anything left?

I look down, I reach for your hand

I say, Darlin' please, won't you understand.

When we began, we thought we could fly,

But we can only glide

So let's

Cut the cords

Break the ties

Send the flames shooting into the night sky

Dry our tears

Say goodbye

Until our hearts can learn to fly

In your eyes there's a gleam

You seem like a bird, broken wings

How can you look like that at me?

From her lips with eyes as big as the moon

"All I knew I wanted to fly with you."

I say I know, I wanted that too

You look down, you take my hand

You say, "Ok, I think I understand,

But before we split to learn to fly

Can we have one more night?"

Before we

Cut the cords

Break the ties

Send the flames shooting into the night sky

Dry our tears

Say goodbye

Until our hearts can learn to fly

I enjoy going fast, but baby we're gonna crash if we don't

Look around and maybe slow down, and we won't

Lose all our love, Just a remnant is enough, might

Preserve this feeling through the years and I'll be dreaming 'bout you

All this time

Before we

Cut the cords

Broke the ties

Sent the flames shooting into the night sky

Dried our tears

Said goodbye

Until our hearts can learn to fly

I'll return

I'll recapture your heart

And nothing will ever tear us apart

I'll hold you close

I'll love you for life

And from then on, together, we can fly

And all because we learnt to fly
