let him fly - dixie chicks



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 good-bye

You know the light has left his face

But you can't recall just where or why

So there was reallly nothing to it

I just went and cut right through it

I said i'm gonna let him fly

Oh yea



There's no mercy in a live wire

No rest at all in freedom

Choices we are given

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 tryin' 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 - fly woah

I'm gonna let him fly - fly

I'm gonna let him fly - fly
