. I spend my whole life climbing ladders Playing catch with the stars A million miles away from disaster An invincible unbreakable heart . I spend my life floating backwards And not because I want to be free I have no choice I must surrender Close my eyes and jump from the dream . Cuz the world is full of ups and downs Highs and lows ain’t that the truth But don’t you know that’s why God made ladders and parachutes . I’ve had love so perfect Even Heaven looked up to see me there And I have been so damn broken Crashing hopelessly through thin air . Cuz the world is full of ups and downs Highs and lows ain’t that the truth But don’t you know that’s why God made ladders and parachutes . Cuz the world is full of ups and downs Highs and lows ain’t that the truth But don’t you know that’s why God made ladders and parachutes . Oh don’t you know that’s why God made ladders and parachutes .
