Let you leave that day
  Let you walk on by
  Breaking up would pay
  But you had far more pride
  If I could give
  Would God accept me
  Tried so hard to live
  Oh why
  Did you have to go out of my life
  Never got the chance to say goodbye
  You flew away
  You flew away
  You left, you flew away
  This heart it aches
  Oh babe you flew away
  And I cry, I pray each night to God
    (tell me why)
  Did you fly away
  Hey
  Woah baby
  (tell me why)
  Why, why
  Did you fly away
  Hey
    Sat along the bay
  Watched the stars in the sky
  Seems like yesterday
  That you were by my side
  If I could give
  Would you still want me
  And would you forgive
  Oh why
  Did you have to go out of my life
  Never got the chance to say goodbye
    [CHORUS X 2]
    Why you wanna fly yeah
  (why'd ya fly)
  Why you wanna fly away
  Why you wanna fly yeah
  (why'd ya fly)
  Listen now baby baby
    Why why why
  Did you fly away hey
  Oh baby
  (tell me why)
  Tell me why, tell me why
  Did you fly away hey
  Yeah, yeah
  Why'd ya fly
  Why'd ya fly
  Baby baby..[fade out]
