lyrics

cotton candy clouds
gathering the crowds
it's the same water
that's always been there
just a different flavor
with a different savior

Behind on your rent
the check's already spent
leave your things
and spread your wings
as the cotton candy choir sings

Fly away, Fly away
all you gotta do
all you gotta do
is fly away
(repeat)

Tired of going to work
tired of getting hurt
trying to climb out
of the grind
and leave all the others way behind

Are you done with the hassle
climb to the roof of your castle
if you jump I bet you
those angels catch you
in their strong arms and sing:

Fly away, Fly away
all you gotta do
all you gotta do
is fly away
(repeat)

You've got to give so much
no shortcuts
I wouldn't dream of leaving
when things are just starting

I'll stay on the ground
In this place that I found
thorns and thistles
work and whistle
'til the end of the day
'til the end of the day

I'm not gonna fly away
I'm not gonna fly away
all I'm gonna do
is stay and see it through
I'm gonna stay
(x4)
