"If You're Gonna Fly Away" lyrics

"If You're Gonna Fly Away"

If you're gonna fly away
Don't fly without me
Don't go nowhere
I need you, babe

Has the sun gone down on you?
Have you given up on truth
I wish I could say hold the right things to make your pain go away
I wish you knew how beautiful you are in every way (Every way)
When the world is falling down
Just kneel with me and pray

If you're gonna fly away
Don't fly without me (Don't fly without me)
Don't go nowhere
I need you, babe
If you're gonna leave this place (If you're thinking about it)
Take me with you
Can never live without you

So you'll take a thousand pills
Hoping to be numb
Lie awake in bed
Counting all that's wrong
No one understands
No one ever will trust me when I tell you
I know just how you feel
You had all these dreams, but you're in a small town
Oh, they killed them for you (Killed them for you)
You had nothing else to do
But use and use use and use use and use use and use

If you're gonna fly away
Don't fly without me (Don't fly without me)
Don't go nowhere
I need you, babe
If you're gonna leave this place (If you're thinking about it)
Take me with you
Can never live without you (Oh, I can never live without you)

Just sing a song for me, baby (Sing for me, baby)
It's not as bad as it seems, no, no, no (No, no, no)
What matters today won't matter tomorrow
Count all your blessings, settle all your sorrow

If you're gonna fly away
Don't fly without me
Don't go nowhere
I need you, babe
If you're gonna leave this place
Take me with you
I can never live without you
If you're gonna fly away
If you're gonna leave this place
Take me with you
I can never live without you

If you're gonna fly away
Don't fly without me
Ooh, I need ya
