Fly Away Lyrics - Kat Hunter

Fly Away

YOU WERE MY BEST FRIEND SINCE WE WERE TEN YEARS OLD
YOUR HOUSE WAS DOWN THE BLOCK, ACROSS THE STREET
NIGHTFALL CAME AROUND, MOMMA CALLED ME HOME
YOU WOULD BEG TO COME WITH ME
YOUR MOMMA HAD A HEART PURE AS SOLID GOLD
IT WAS SUCH A MYSTERY TO ME
WHY SHE WORE SUNGLASSES NIGHT AND DAY
YOU WOULD ALWAYS WEAR LONG SLEEVES

Chorus: FLY AWAY TO FEEDOM
DON’T EVER LOOK BACK
THE CAGE DOOR HAS FLOWN WIDE OPEN
AND I’LL STAY HERE TO BURY YOUR PAST


YOU HAD PLANS TO RUN ONE DAY
AND I BELIEVED YOU WOULD
YOUR DADDY SAID HE WOULD MAKE YOU PAY
IF YOU EVER SPOKE THE TRUTH
ALL THE PAIN HE PUT YOU THROUGH
I CAN ONLY SYMPATHIZE
BUT YOU WERE SET FREE ON YOUR EIGHTEENTH BIRTHDAY
THE GUNSHOT THAT ENDED YOUR LIFE

Chorus:
FLY AWAY TO FEEDOM
DON’T EVER LOOK BACK
THE CAGE DOOR HAS FLOWN WIDE OPEN
AND I’VE STAYED HERE TO BURY YOUR PAS


Repeat Chorus:
FLY AWAY TO FREEDOM
DON’T EVER LOOK BACK
THE CAGE DOOR HAS FLOWN WIDE OPEN
AND I’LL STAY HERE TO BURY YOUR PAST

Tag:
THE CAGE DOOR HAS FLOWN WIDE OPEN
AND I’LL STAY HERE TO BURY YOUR PAST
