Cover art for Let Him Fly lyrics by Jessica Simpson

Jessica Simpson is my most favorite singer of all time. She is absoultely brilliant, whether some people think she is a dumb blonde with no logic, you would be surprised. If you listen to her songs, you will be amazed. The songs she writes have so much meaning, and inspiration, & will most likely bring you to tears. Her songs are so good that they bring out emotions in you. When ever I'm upset, or really need a break, I just listen to her music, it really soothes me. You can call me corny if you want, but I'm telling you, she is the best singer you will ever hear in your life.

This one song, Let Him Fly, is basically about her getting over Nick Lachey. She realizes that she can't talk to him anymore, there is not use, that it is useless trying to get him to understand her. thats why she says "ain't no talkin to this man" because she can't talk to him, he doesn't get what she is trying to say. & its useless for him to understand her, because she is getting over him. The song pretty much tells about how she did all she could to make things work, and try to get better, but she realizes it's time to let go, shes "letting him fly". When she says "Ain't no way to understand the stupid words of pride, it would take an acrobat but I already tried all that," she is portraying that there is no way to understand what he is doing to her, or what he is meaning, there is no way for him to understand her either, because it would take an "acrobat" or something else besides herself to do it, but shes tried EVERYTHING to get him to understand, & he still doesn't. so she needs to let him fly. she needs to let go of the love they shared.

This is an absolutely amazing, beautiful, brilliant song. It helped me through a break-up with my ex-boyfriend, & i realized that no matter how much i want him back, I need to let him fly, because theres nothing else I can do. I relate to this song very much. I love it.

I totally agree with you, I am a huge Jessica Simpson fan I think she is really talented and has a great voice. She is a little clumsy but who isn't? She is always so classy & i love that about her! :} When i first heard this song on you tube, i was brought to tears because i've been there and sometimes the hardest things are the best options. I love it!

Yes, it's beautiful, but don't kid yourself into thinking Jessica Simpson is that talented. It's a Patty Griffin song. (So is the Dixie Chicks' famous Top of the World).
