Teaching broken birds to fly

I can′t fix 'em but at least I tried

I hanged on for dear life

But that didn′t make you stay

Looking at me with those eyes

It's like you love to see me cry

This will be our last goodbye

This time it's for real

Everybody warned me

And all the ones before me

Told me that you were no good

Looking back on hindsight

Even if the time is right

This is what I have to do

Time for me to go now, oh

I′m afraid you′re on your own now, oh

Teaching broken birds to fly

A love like this should never die

I brought you back to life

But now I need to heal

There's nothing else I can do

′Cause there's no help when you

Spread your wings and fly back home now

Everybody warned me

And all the ones before me

Told me that you were no good

Looking back on hindsight

Even if the time is right

This is what I have to do

Time for me to go now, oh

I′m afraid you're on your own now, oh

I wish that you were stronger

Can′t hold on any longer

For you to wanna save yourself

It's time for me to go now, now

Where would you be if it wasn't for me

Gotta let go but I don′t even know

Forget all the good times that outweigh the bad

I feel like my heart′s gonna stop

Bye

Bye

Time for me to go now, oh

I'm afraid you′re on your own now, oh

I wish that you were stronger

Can't hold on any longer

For you to wanna save yourself

It′s time for me to go now, now
