It's a bird It's a plane It's my love in the sky Leaving me once again It's the cries It's the pain That keeps me warm When things aint the same I know she writes me But I won't read My sisters got a new life They don't need a brother no more They don't need my help no more What can I do to make you stay I 'm too young to think of something to say Before I could stop it, it was too late There goes my life flyin' away A little man can't fathom the change I took it and I knew it It would never be the same But maybe one day we'd meet again Yeah we'll meet again
Chorus And it goes C'est la vie It's already happened to me It's already happened to me And it goes C'est la vie It's already happened to me It's already happened to me
It's a bird It's a plane It's my love in the sky Leaving me once again It's the lies It's the shames that keeps me so warm Cause things aint the same I know she loves me Why won't she say My momma's got a new life She don't need a son no more Why don't she need my love no more What can I say to make you stay What can I do for you to prove That there was nothing that I wouldn't do To keep you from leaving out of the blue And into the sky like a shadow of a doubt It felt like home was prison You had to get out So you broke free and found your way Far away from me Far away from me
Chorus
I know I could've gone The emotions were strong But I couldn't leave pops Even though he's like a rock The child in me wanted to stay But the man was like, come on kids Let's just call it a day And the women in my life That kept my head right Were on the next flight I pretended it's alright None of this was overnight, you see We kept our love strong And brought to life a dying family It's been a fucked up year But we got eachother Three beautiful women And a pops that's like a brother God I guess has got a big ol' bag of tricks Cause we broke our backs for years And now look at us
