Lyrics
Let me go
Expressing a desire for freedom or independence
Let me fly
Requesting the freedom to soar and explore
Go up in the sky away
Suggesting a departure to the sky, a metaphorical escape
Always know that your mine
Asserting a possessive connection, a claim of belonging
No matter if you fly away
Reassuring continued ownership despite distance
Hold me close
Asking for emotional closeness and intimacy
Hold me tight
Emphasizing the need for a secure embrace
Don't you say goodbye today
Discouraging farewells on the current day
Got these stones
Possibly symbolizing obstacles or challenges
Stones of mine
Indicating personal burdens or responsibilities
To make sure you don't fly away
Using stones as a metaphor to anchor or tether
But
Transition to a contrasting or conflicting idea
When I turn
Shift in perspective, possibly turning away
Turn my eye
Focusing attention through a metaphorical eye
You keep looking to fly away
Noting a tendency to seek freedom or escape
So I know
Expressing understanding or realization
Know in time
Belief in a predetermined destiny to fly away
That your meant to fly away
Repetition of the theme of destined departure
Jaybird
Introducing a symbolic term, "Jaybird"
Those wings of yours were meant to fly
Stating the inherent nature of wings to fly
I've gone wayward
Admitting to deviating from the expected path
Can't let you grow
Expressing reluctance to allow growth or freedom
Can't let you fly
Insistence on preventing the act of flying
Cause you'll favor
Anticipating a preference for the unknown
The unknown the unsight
Concerns about favoring unfamiliar territory
And a love that don't belong to me
Addressing the challenge of competing for love
In the cold in the night
Referencing solitude in the cold of the night
Who is there to keep you company
Pondering the absence of companionship
If you go take a slice
Suggesting a willingness to sacrifice for companionship
Of my heart for your company
Offering a piece of the heart for connection
When the road is getting dry
Addressing challenges or difficulties in the journey
Maybe you'll run to me
Hopeful anticipation of a return if the journey is tough
Let me go
Reiteration of the desire for freedom
Let me fly
Repetition of the plea for the freedom to fly
Go up in the sky away
Repeating the idea of ascending into the sky
Always know that your mine
Reaffirming the claim of possession despite departure
No matter if we fly away
Asserting enduring ownership despite potential separation
