Fly Free
You can't buy my love,
so keep your diamonds and jewels.
You can't control me,
so don't waste your time.
You can't talk me into staying,
so save your breath.
I gave you my heart,
only to have you rip it out and crush it.
So once again I pick myself upand dust myself off.
Put on my wings and prepare to fly.
But before I leave, let me say this.
You may have been able to crush my heart,
but you will never crush my spirit.
My wings in the wind,
I fly to the next crossroad in my life.
Which path shall I choose this time?
No matter the path I choose,
I know that I will love again
and my spirit will always fly free.
