Flying Away

What am I to you
Just a forgotten burden from your past?
Nothing much about me, is there
That'd make you want us to last forever?

Am I just the dust at your feet
Always will be there guaranteed?
But what if the wind blows
What will you do without me?

I may be girl you didn't notice
I may be the girl you forgot to kiss
I may be the girl you expected to be there
But just remember this

I'm not stayin' in your cage
I'm gonna fly away
Into the clouds so I can be free
And you're just gonna have to live without me
Next time you need a helping hand
That's when you'll understand
I'm soarin' up high with a wound in my heart
But I'm not comin' back
I'm flying away

What did it mean to you
When I brought you everything you asked for
Gave you my full attention
Everything you wanted and I tried to give you more?

When did you even notice me
Though I was always there beside you
To answer your every call, your every cry
When you didn't know what to do?

I may be girl you didn't notice
I may be the girl you forgot to kiss
I may be the girl you expected to be there
But just remember this

I'm not stayin' in your cage
I'm gonna fly away
Into the clouds so I can be free
And you're just gonna have to live without me
Next time you need a helping hand
That's when you'll understand
I'm soarin' up high with a wound in my heart
But I'm not comin' back
I'm flying away

I know I'll miss you, boy
But I gave you everything you wanted
You gave me nothing in return
Took me entirely for granted
I tried so hard to please you
I tried so hard to make you smile
But in the end neither of us were satisfied
I can't live this way

I may be girl you didn't notice
(You didn't notice, baby)
I may be the girl you forgot to kiss
(You know I loved you)
I may be the girl you expected to be there
(Always)
But just remember this
(Just remember, just remember)

I may be girl you didn't notice
(Oh, oh)
I may be the girl you forgot to kiss
(Oh, oh)
I may be the girl you expected to be there
(Oh, oh)
But just remember this

I'm not stayin' in your cage
I'm gonna fly away
Into the clouds so I can be free
And you're just gonna have to live without me
Next time you need a helping hand
That's when you'll understand
I'm soarin' up high with a wound in my heart
But I'm not comin' back
I'm flying away
Flying away
