Fly

You were not meant to belong to anyone
You have to learn to fly
You were not meant to belong to anyone
You have to learn to fly

Like a babe weaned from its mothers breast
Like a kite cut from its string
Like a butterfly in an open palm
I will set you free
And if you come back
If you come back
You will be
The one for me

You were not meant to belong to anyone
You have to learn to fly high
You were not meant to belong to anyone
You have to live your life
And I will not own you
Nor will I hold you
To a promise on paper
We’ll just stay together
And be

You were not meant to belong to anyone
You have to learn to fly
You were not meant to belong to anyone
You have to find your way
And in your quest
For happiness
If you should find
The thing that brings you peace of mind
Then live
