Phoenix

She’s a phoenix I watched her spread her wings
Why does she always fly away
Oh when I’m feeling as she burns me up inside
Behind those charcoal eyes
I took a breath and let her go She’s as bright as the snow oh ohh oh So fly away start over somewhere south
She says that the weather’s nice
She’d love me to come out
Across the Midwest in the day
Drove a car all the way to Denver
Called me to say she loved the way the mountains still had snow in the
Summer
I took a breath and held it in No she’s never coming back again
Fly away start over somewhere south
She says that the weather’s nice
She’d love me to come out
Go on and fly away
It’s not like I need her now
As I’m burning up inside
I’ll forgive her somehow
Fly away start over somewhere south
She says that the weather’s nice
But I’d love you to come out
Found a way to break in to your chest
And devour what I find into pieces
Take my time
Fly away start over somewhere south
She says that the weather’s nice
But I’d love you to come out
Go on and fly away
It’s not like I need her now
As I’m burning up inside
I’ll forgive her somehow
She’s a phoenix I watched her spread her wings
Why does she always fly away
