Sade – Morning Bird Lyrics 12 years ago
I think this song is about how someone has been betrayed or "let down" by someone they love.

almost like that person has given up on the writer.

"you are the river" "you are the blood of me"
i think these relate to how deeply the writer loved this person- so much so that they are going to let them "fly away"

"if you set me free i will not run"
i think this means that if the lover can give the writer room to fly then she/he will not resent the lover for leaving anymore.

However, I find this song very sad because I think it show the writer trying to find the strength to leave someone who may not feel that they love the writer anymore.

but we all know love never really dies, and its often when the un-loved leaves for good, the un-lover realises what they have lost. :(
