Fear Of Flying

Fairchild Shelly


I've worn down these wheels so much that they don't even spin. 
And I've picked the lock to your heart as if I were tryin' to break in 
You poor little thing, that ball and that chain must be ten thousand pounds 
Must be draggin' you down by now 

So fly away, fly away like you've always wanted to do 
Don't be afraid baby I'll make it easy on you 
I'll be the strong one cause I love you still 
If you can't say goodbye then baby I will 
I hope someday you'll get over your fear of flying 

We've been running from the truth so long that we can't catch our breath 
Oh and now heartache and a bottle of whiskey is all we've got left 
You poor little thing, locked up in your cage 
And I'm not the one stepping on your wings 

So fly away fly away like you always wanted to do 
Don't be afraid baby I'll make it easy on you 
Don't say a word and don't make a sound 
Just get up and take your feet off the ground 
I hope someday you'll get over your fear of flying 

So fly away fly away like you've always wanted to do 
I'll say goodbye baby I'll make it easy on you 
Oh I love you I hate you I miss you like hell 
But most of all baby I wish you well 
Maybe one day I'll get over these tears I'm crying 
Oh and someday you'll get over your fear of flying 

Baby someday you'll get over your fear of flying
