Background
The song is an ode to longing for simpler times and a simpler way of life.[4] Record World said that "this ballad contains the unmistakable Denver vocal charm with the added bonus of Olivia Newton-John joining in on the chorus."[5] Rolling Stone magazine remarked, "At this point, John Denver albums are as numerous as potted plants in the apartments of these urbanites, and both are symptoms of the same longing. The singer acknowledges his average listener in 'Fly Away'."[4]
