We’re flying, yes,
We’re flying!
I gasp as I leap
From the ledge�?/P>
I grab for your hand,
Come on, let’s fly!
We spread our arms -
Those imaginary wings,
And soar through infinity
Without a care in the world.
The puzzle finally fits,
The last piece is in place.
We’re walking on air,
Gliding through existence -
The real meaning, this is it.
But�?/P> We’re falling,
Whilst we fly, we fall,
Our wings are tearing,
Those wings that never were
Really there.
Our existence is plunging,
Only to hit the cold concrete...
Then it’ll be too late.
So I tell you now
That I love you,
As we fly
Through silver skies,
Catching stars
And chasing dreams.
