Let Him Fly Lyrics - A Kiss In Time - Patty Griffin

Ain't no talking 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 so 

I'm gonna let him fly 

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

There's no mercy in the live wire, no rest at all in freedom 

Of the choices we are given it's no choice at all 

The proof's in the fire you touch before it moves away 

But you must always know how long to stay and when to go 

And there ain't no talking to this man 

He's been tryin to tell me so 

It took awhile to understand 

The beauty of just letting go 

'Cause it would take an acrobat 

I already tried all that 

I'm gonna let him fly 

I'm gonna let him fly
