From the recording SING LOUDER
Written for Meghan's late fiance, Matthew, this song was re-recorded for a young man who sang on the record and shared his light with all of us in so many ways. Sean led with his smile and an infectious twinkle in his eye. I imagine he would want us all to keep that joy alive in his absence. R.I.P. Sean Hanlon. We’ll keep shining for you! – MC
Lyrics
Fly and be free he said, let me go
You need no anchors tying you to the shore
You’ve got oceans to sail
Blue skies calling you
Fly and be free, let me go
I have no more needs for you to fulfill
Its time now you take care of your own
It’s time to live what you’ve learned
Take what you’ve earned through the years
It’s time to fly and be free
Fly and be free
That’s the greatest gift that you could give to me
Remember well
There’s a heaven here on earth and there’s a hell
So shine your light
The love that drew me in and held me tight
Fly and be free
So the world can learn from all you learned from me
Now that I’m free from all the pain I knew
I’m living on the wind and in your song
So don’t fret over me
For I’ll always be
The angel watching over you
Fly and be free
That’s the greatest gift that you could give to me
Remember well
There’s a heaven here on earth and there’s a hell
So shine your light
The love that drew me in and held me tight
Fly and be free
So the world can learn from all you learned from me
Fly and be free
That’s the greatest gift that you could give to me
Fly and be free
