Fly Away

This one is for you daddies out there who love your daughters
Tell 'em you love 'em before they fly away

I feel the sadness in your eyes
I see your wings too short to fly
I taste all the tears you cry

I watch you stumble, watch you fall
I'll resist the urge to call
But when your back is to the wall

And as you stride in leaps and bounds
I can hardly make a sound
I hope to never let you down

And as the years go passing by
And I watch you laugh and cry
I know that soon it's time to fly

So fly away, my darling, fly away
Don't you fly too far, no matter where you are
Fly, you'll see, but when you're tired, please
Lay your wings on me
I will always be the one who loves you like no other

And as you watch me growing old
And you do what I have told
I get to watch your world unfold

No one will ever put you down
I taught you well, I taught you how
You won't be pushed by anyone

And if you ever need my hand
I will always understand
You know I've taught you right from wrong

The world is hard, the world is cold
I've watched your quiet life unfold
And you know it's going on

So fly away, my darling, fly away
Don't you fly too far, no matter where you are
Fly, you'll see, but when you're tired, please
Put your wings on me
I will always be the one that loves you like no other

I feel the sadness in your eyes
I see your wings too short to fly
I taste all the tears you cry

I watch you stumble, watch you fall
But I'm too afraid to call
But when your back is to the wall

And if you ever need my hand
I will always understand
You know I've taught you right from wrong

And as you stride in leaps and bounds
I can hardly make a sound
I hope to never let you down
Never let you down

So fly away, my darling, fly away
Don't you fly too far, no matter where you are
Fly, you'll see, but when you're tired, please
Lay your wings on me
I will always be the one who loves you like no other

Oh, yeah
I'll be the one who loves you like no other
Oh, yeah
The one who loves you like no other

Fly away, baby
