Fly On (For Levi Stubbs) (Al Kooper Remaster 2008)

Kooper

If you think that I'm not loving you
If you think I'm not doing the things I said I'd do
Well, some of us among you would say you were mistaken
Some would say you were paranoid
To bring about heartbreaking

If ya cant check yourself
if you cant return my caress
Woman I refuse to dwell in a house of bitterness
I could love you deeper than any woman ever loved a man
But if you cant get next to me than I will let go of your hand

And you can fly on
Go ahead & fly on
I know you got to fly on
Go ahead & fly on

Oh I can see the change that's come into your eye
There's another face in the space I used to occupy
Aw you don't have to say a word
Your face says you've decided
Oh but noone knows what wrong is, honey
Until after they've tried it

So go & fly on
I know you got to fly on
Go ahead & fly on
Go ahead & fly on

I will always love you no matter what you do
As a matter of fact my love
Will just grow stronger if we're through
And if by chance you ever see the error in your ways
Then I will take you back again
And we can live like yesterday and

Fly on
Together we could fly on
We could fly on
Together we could fly on
