Fly Me High - Xavier Rudd

Came along with the crystal eyes

And a smile that would shine for days

And I could see that her heart was strong

So much kindness in her face

And patiently she took my hand

And gently held the space

Like a cherry blossom

She would silently radiate

Fly me high, butterfly

Fly me gently to the sky

Fly me high butterfly

Fly me gently to the sky

Came along when my hands were tied

And I knew I just had to wait

Lick my wounds, rebuild my pride

Leave the seed to germinate

See it needed sun and it needed rain

And a love I could not locate

I trusted time and I trusted fire

Because I learned to trust in fate

Fly me high, butterfly

Fly me gently to the sky

Fly me high butterfly

Fly me gently to the sky

Fly me high, butterfly

Fly me gently to the sky

Fly me high butterfly

Fly me gently to the sky

Beneath the canopy of the jungle when I saw her face

To the belly of the animals on the centipedes and snakes

Shipibo’s song will never fade

Can’t find the road no more

When you cannot find your way

The candle burns out before you reach your destination

You can’t find the strength inside

To keep on with your days

The answer lies deep inside the natural mystic from which we came
