Fly Me Away

Flying towards the sun
From all that we've become
From harsh complexities
And all the people I have to please
 
You said you're in my way
Our love's eroded like clay
Making sense of tragic fate
Almost there, but was too late
 
Fly me away, just for today
Release this broken heart that is tearing me apart
Fly me away
From the rubble and the fray
Fly me away
 
Can't bear this crushing weight
Life costs much more than the gate
His golden eyes turned ashen gray
Shall I go or will you stay?
 
Will we become a casualty?
Of midlife apathy?
Or will our light sustain
Heal these broken wings and pain
