One day the time will come
Won't be my baby anymore
And I can't help but hold on to the little girl
That loved me to the moon
Now you've got the urge to fly
Spread your wings and have a try
While I was grounded in the walk of life
I felt the winds of change hit me by surprise
When you fly, fly
Fly away, while your daddy waves goodbye
Once held you in my arms
To protect you from the dark
But now I've become so afraid
That I'm more afraid than you ever were
If you fly, fly
Fly away, while your daddy waves goodbye
You took a gray day in London
And painted every rainbow in my life
Yeah me and you, sang our song together
Howlin' like coyotes in the night
I'll miss those times
When you leave the nest and learn to fly
Now you think that you can fly
There's no stoppin' you this time
You have the courage to embrace the sky
You have all my love whatever you decide
So fly, go on and fly
Fly away, while your daddy waves goodbye,
Goodbye, goodbye
