Let him fly by Patty Griffin covered by Jess LaFrank

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, but I already tried all that
I'm gonna let him fly

Things can move at such a pace
the second hand just waves 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'm gonna let him fly

there's no mercy in a live wire
no rest at all in freedom
of the choices we are given it's not choice at all
the proof is in the fire
you touch before it moves away
but you must always know how long to stay and when to go

there ain't no talkin to this man
he's been tryin to tell me so
it took awhile to understand the beauty of just letting go
cuz it would take an acrobat, and i already tried all that
i'm gonna let him fly
