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 goodbye
  You know the light has left his face
  But you can't recall just where or why
  So there was really nothing to it
  I just went and cut right through it
  I said I'm gonna let him fly
  Oh yeah
    There's no mercy in a live wire
  No rest at all in freedom
  Choices we are givin
  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 trying 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 whoa
  I'm gonna let him fly - fly
  I'm gonna let him fly - fly
