Born to Fly

These last few months have been so hard

I guess all I wanted more than anything

Was for you to stay with me

To spend the rest of your days

Right here by my side

But girl it’s taken me oh so long

Long enough to learn this lesson

Angel, you were born to fly

And I can’t keep you here

Can’t lock you in the palm of my hand

Though oh how I wish I could keep holding you

Angel, you were hurt before

You had your broken wings

I took care of you

Wings took time to heal

But now angel, you were born to fly

So soar as far as faith will take you

And if ever you should fly too high

I’ll be sure to catch you should you fall
