Tommy's grown a pair of wings
She practiced what she'd say when it was over
Sarah hums a song he'd sing
As Emma dreams of days when he was sober
Let's all remember who he was
And bring a bit of comfort to his mother
Who dries her eyes and memorizes
Just exactly how he'd say he loved her
Oh fly fly fly fly tonight
No one here knows how to say goodbye
Cuz young hearts are made to be broken
But broken then meant to be fixed
Oh Tommy we're all feeling hopeless
Not ready for this
It's hard to find the words to say
Without it sounding trite or underwhelming
It's safe to say you'd hate today
The cross above our head's not really helping
If he took you to a better place
Then why could he not wait until you're older
Hands are held and stories told
Tommy I just wish that we'd stayed closer
Oh fly fly fly fly tonight
No one here knows how to say goodbye
Cuz young hearts are made to be broken
But broken then meant to be fixed
Oh Tommy we're all feeling hopeless
Not ready for this
And all the irony
Is in times like these
We'd all lean on you
And all that's fighting me
Is to think there's parts of you I'll never know
Oh fly fly fly fly tonight
No one here knows how to say goodbye
Cuz young hearts are made to be broken
But broken then meant to be fixed
Oh Tommy we're all feeling hopeless
Not ready for this
Oh my friend you'll be missed
Tommy's grown a pair of wings
She knew just what she'd say when it was over
