I saw pictures from the space shuttle, North America at night |
|
I could almost see my house, I could almost see the rest of my life |
|
Now my mother's in the hospital and my friends are in the news |
|
Collecting trophies for the songs they wrote when we lived in the shadow of the moon |
|
Guess I've never made a gold record and I've never been to Mars |
|
But I've traveled 'round this world shooting fireworks at falling stars |
|
And my father's got a decent job, I hear he's finally pulling through |
|
There's more to life than singing songs we write when we are in the shadow of the moon |
|
And I see colors when I hear your voice |
|
Grab your wings, they're putting gravity on trial |
|
I see colors, I don't hear the noise |
|
Because we're only flying for awhile |
|
Because we're only flying for awhile |
|
I saw this picture of my niece twisting high above the narrow beam |
|
And my brother looked so proud like he woke up in this perfect dream |
|
I've known you all my life but I knew you long before that too |
|
Let's go dancing to the songs we wrote when we lived in the shadow of the moon |
|
And I see colors when I hear your voice |
|
Grab your wings, they're putting gravity on trial |
|
I see colors, I don't hear the noise |
|
Sometimes we're only flying for awhile |
|
I could love you in the falling rain, |
|
Grab your things this is a storm we're meant to ride |
|
Like synesthesia aboard a stalling plane |
|
It's like we're only flying for awhile, |
|
Flying for awhile |
|
Woahhh.. |
|
And I see colors when I hear your voice |
|
Grab your wings they're putting gravity on trial |
|
I see colors, I don't fear the choice |
|
Sometimes we're only flying for awhile |
|
And I could love you in the falling rain |
|
Grab your things this is a storm we're meant to ride |
|
Like synesthesia aboard a stalling plane |
|
It's like we're only flying for awhile |
|
Flying for awhile |
|
I can see the colors running, when they hear the music playing... |
|
Flying for awhile... |
