lyrics
I want to fall
Down from the highest cloud
After I've seen all these things from above
I can start to feel just a little far off
The summer sun
Hot on a lover's neck
Can't even warm up an icy embrace
It won't even brighten up a shadowy face
You know I want to stay far out of the way
And just look on at a distant display
It's time to walk straight into the fray
And tear my eyes from the distant display
The child's eyes
Turned to the night time skies
They see the stories in faraway stars
Crash back to earth when the fantasy dies
Here in the quiet place
Only the softest sounds
In a cocoon lying gently asleep
In a balloon drifting into the deep
You know I wanna stay far out of the way
And just look on at a distant display
It's time to walk straight into the fray
And tear my eyes from the distant display
