![]() MiaA Chapter by Shawn Purcell![]() A song about living the life you choose![]() Hey,
baby, Lilly, I
know its cold tonight. Alone
out on the ice And
it’s too dark to fly. And
you’re on the outside now To
face this on your own. I
know you’re scared It’s
cold out in the snow Chorus Fly high, Lilly There’s
no need to be afraid. They
can’t hurt you anymore. Time
will mend your wing. And
fly high Lilly, find space to grow Go
places you want to know. Go
home if you want to But
never feel you must. Live
your days In a
cloudless orange sky. Love
free and live well. Change
with the seasons. Live
every moment and Always
play the threads. Know
it’s never over Because
love is never ending. Be
strong. Fly
north into the winter It
doesn’t matter what they say As
long as you feel at home. And
remember you must get there Before
you can be gone. Before
your struggles become you Be
quick to move on. Chorus
2 So fly high Lilly There’s
no need to be afraid. Let
them hate you if they want, It’s
not your problem, really. Fly
high Lilly, Find
space to grow. Follow
your heart sometimes. It
knows where to go. So
don’t forget Everything’s
cuz of something else. Just
listen when your heart cries And
live like your soul's alive. Don't
let them break your spirit, And
don't let them take your pride. Put
one wing forward And
grow a flap at a time. It’s
hard sometimes It’s
a far fall from the top. Another
nose dive into heartache Ask
why if you need to But
don’t worry too much about the details. Don’t
base your life’s expectations On
the fears of those around you. Chorus
3 Fly on Lilly Until
you can’t go anymore Love
free, this is your life. If
you get stuck just wait All
things pass in time. Try
not to lose your feet Just
breathe when you can’t speak And
wait until tomorrow. © 2013 Shawn Purcell |
