Fly Away
I felt myself free, until one day,
The day I saw my moon, far above in sky,
I would be in street, looking up for moon,
Always in want when it shines its silvery light,
But she isn't so easy, she likes hide and seek,
Hiding behind clouds, leaving me badly hurt,
Day after day, time went on,
For few days my moon was gone,
This is when I break free, cutting all my chains,
For I had to rise, I had to fly,
She was my love, I needed my moon back,
For long I was a new bird in its nest,
With wings on back, but a fear in heart and head,
Broken inside, furiously I take leap,
For I come to now believe,
Even if you die, at least you tried,
And Woah, I flew, flew across seas,
Above the cloud, my moon can be seen.
