Fly Away
Rides Again Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She took up all her things and sailed away
Now all that I have is a note that says "I'm never coming back"
She doesn't know I let her go.
I see her pass me by from time to time
Never close enough to say hello
and Into the air she drifts away and never coming down, no
and Now we are free, free as a bird,
To fly away, away from here
and Now we are free, free as a bird,
To fly away, to disappear, to fly away...
The one I love the most is gone again
She took up all her things and sailed away
Now all I have is a note that says "I'm never coming back"
She doesn't know I let her go
and Now we are free, free as a bird,
To fly away, away from here
and Now we are free, free as a bird,
To fly away, to disappear...
When she goes I see how beautiful we are.
When she goes I see how beautiful we are.
How beautiful we are when we walk away...
and Now we are free, free as a bird,
To fly away, away from here
and Now we are free, free as a bird,
To fly away, away from here
and Now we are free, free as a bird,
Free as a bird...
The song "Fly Away" by Rides Again is a heartfelt composition that talks about the pain and regret of losing the person you love. The first verse talks about the departure of his lover after packing up all her things and leaving him behind with only a note that says "I'm never coming back". The lyrics suggest that the singer was responsible for pushing her away, probably through neglect or not being able to give her what she wanted, and now he's forced to live with the consequences of his actions.
The chorus highlights the theme of freedom, now that she's gone, and how they can both fly away and start anew. However, the last verse is the most bittersweet of the song, as the singer realizes the beauty of their relationship when they walk away. The pain of losing her might have made him see how much he truly loved her.
Overall, the song is a poignant reminder of the things we take for granted in relationships and the regret that comes with losing someone we love.

The one I love the most is gone again
The person I love the most has left me again
She took up all her things and sailed away
She packed up everything and left
Now all that I have is a note that says "I'm never coming back"
All I received was a note saying she won't return
She doesn't know I let her go.
She doesn't know I allowed her to leave
I see her pass me by from time to time
I catch glimpses of her occasionally
Never close enough to say hello
She's always out of reach
and Into the air she drifts away and never coming down, no
She's gone and won't be returning
and Now we are free, free as a bird, To fly away, away from here
Without her, we're free to leave and start anew
and Now we are free, free as a bird, To fly away, to disappear, to fly away...
We have the freedom to depart and disappear completely
When she goes I see how beautiful we are.
We realize our beauty only when we walk away
How beautiful we are when we walk away...
We exude beauty when we leave
and Now we are free, free as a bird,
We are now liberated
Free as a bird...
As free as a bird would be
