lyrics

when I told you how I love you said, "it’s too early.
you’re not ready for your heart
to be drowned in its own blood."

to protect me is your job but it occurs to me
has anyone braced so hard
that they never got a cut?

you said, "take your time."
Is time mine to take?

it was you who told me about the birds and bees
but they let their young ones fly
yeah they let their young ones fly
cause flying teaches flying

ah-ah-ah-ah aaaah
cause flying teaches flying (flah-ah-ah-y)

when the big storm touches shore, it’s always early—
we’re not ready for the stroke
of the wind and rain and loss.

it’s happened more than once before but it’s a first for me
and I thank you for the bridge
but now you have to let me cross.

you said, "Take your time."
but if I take my time will you let me?

it is true we’re neither birds nor bees
but I hope you’ll let me fly
I know you want to see me fly
and flying teaches flying

ah-ah-ah-ah aaaah
flying teaches flying

when the time comes to let go, it’s way too early.
I’ll be ready but no more than you,
no more than anyone’s ever been...

cause time, it sends us
fl-ah-ah-ah-ying
time send us
fl-ah-ah-ah-ying
flying
woo-oh woo-oh
time send us
