If I Could Fly

If I had the courage to do what I wanted
If I could let go of you and push you away
And never come crawling back
Then life would be as possible as flying

If I had something to fall back on
Something other then solid rock
Then I'd lay down and relax all day

If I had support from you
If I could be encouraged by you
Then maybe I'd be able to decide things for myself

But I'm just a candle in the wind

My flame sways back and forth
I want to let go of you forever
But I know I'll come crawling back
I change my mind every second

The wind comes and carries my heart to you
But I never actually get yours
I don't even care though
I need you, but I don't want you

Needless to say, I'm just a candle in the wind
The direction of my flame is left just to sway
And sway and sway
Until I've decided what to do with my life

And guess what
I let you go just yesterday
And here I am, begging on my knees
