Lyric She s Gonna Fly
(Jason Blume/Karen Taylor-Good)
This is the woman
Who had all the answers
The one I would lean on
For comfort, for strength
She s never forgotten
One grandchild s birthday
Now she can t remember my name
And it makes me so angry
I shake my fist
And cry out to the heavenly one
Why would you play
Such a cold hearted trick
I thought your job was to love
And the answer came down from above
She s gonna fly
When her time here is through
First she ll have to let go
Of some things she can t use
Cause people and places
Memories and faces
Are just way too heavy it seems
To carry on angel s wings
This is the woman
Who saw things so clearly
The one who could pick out
One crumb on the floor
She saw through a white lie
Saw me through love s eyes
She hardly can see anymore
And it makes me so sad
And it just isn t fair
Why should so much be taken away
But when I cry out
For all that she s lost
I silently hear someone say
She s gonna fly
When her time here is through
First she ll have to let go
Of some things she can t use
Cause people and places
Memories and faces
Are just way too heavy it seems
To carry on angel s wings
And oh, the wonders she ll see
And I know she ll remember
To watch over me
She s gonna fly
When her time here is through
First she ll have to let go
Of some things she can t use
Cause people and places
Memories and faces
Are just way too heavy it seems
To carry on angel s wings
To carry on angel s wings
This is the woman
Who had all the answers
The one I would lean on
For comfort, for strength
She s never forgotten
One grandchild s birthday
Now she can t remember my name
And it makes me so angry
I shake my fist
And cry out to the heavenly one
Why would you play
Such a cold hearted trick
I thought your job was to love
And the answer came down from above
She s gonna fly
When her time here is through
First she ll have to let go
Of some things she can t use
Cause people and places
Memories and faces
Are just way too heavy it seems
To carry on angel s wings
This is the woman
Who saw things so clearly
The one who could pick out
One crumb on the floor
She saw through a white lie
Saw me through love s eyes
She hardly can see anymore
And it makes me so sad
And it just isn t fair
Why should so much be taken away
But when I cry out
For all that she s lost
I silently hear someone say
She s gonna fly
When her time here is through
First she ll have to let go
Of some things she can t use

And oh, the wonders she ll see
And I know she ll remember

When her time here is through
First she ll have to let go
Of some things she can t use

Memories and faces
Are just way too heavy it seems
To carry on angel s wings
To carry on angel s wings
