The lyrics are all over the Internet and how many years has it been? I thought R.E.O. had done this song (alone). Hmmmmmmmm....learn something new every day:) The lyrics seem self-explanatory...trouble in a relationship. S/he feels as though s/he's been hurt by the other person and everything has just deteriorated into oblivion. The best thing is for the two to part so they each can move on and find happiness elsewhere.


I've been around for you

I've been up and down for you

But I just can't get any relief

I've swallowed my pride for you

I've lived and lied for you

But you still make me feel like a thief

You got me stealin' your love away

'Cause you never give it

Peeling the years away

And we can't relive it

Oh I make you live

And you make cry

I believe it's time for me to fly

You said we'd work it out

You said that you had no doubt

That deep down we were really in love

Oh, but I'm tired of holding on

To a feeling I know is gone

I do believe that I've had enough

I've had enough of the falseness

Of a worn out relation

Enough of the jealousy

And the intoleration

Oh I make you live

And you make me cry

I believe it's time for me to fly

{Refrain} Time for me to fly

Oh, I've got to set myself free

Time for me to fly

And that's just how it's got to be

I know it hurts to say goodbye

But it's time for me to fly

Oh, don't you know it's...

{Refrain}

It's time for me to fly

{Repeat to end}
