Lyrics
0:37Breathe and I'll carry you away into the velvet sky
0:43And we'll stir the stars around
0:46And watch them fall away into the Hudson Bay
0:51And plummet out of sight and sound
0:54The open summer breeze will sweep you through the hills
0:59Where I live in the alpine heights
1:03Below the Northern Lights I spend my coldest nights
1:08Alone awake and thinking of the weekend we were in love
1:29Home among these mountain tops can be so awfully dull
1:35A thousand miles from the tide
1:38But photos on the walls of New York shopping malls
1:42Distract me so I stay inside
1:46I wish the rockets stayed over the promenade
1:50Cuz I would make a hook and eye
1:55And fish them from the sky my darling she and I
1:58We're hanging on so take us high
2:02To sing the world goodbye:
2:04I am floating away
2:08Lost in a silent ballet
2:12I'm dreaming you're out in the blue and I am right beside you
2:17Awake to take in the view
2:21Late nights and early parades
2:24Still photos and noisy arcades
2:29My darling we're both on the wing look down and keep on singing
2:33And we can go anywhere
2:37Are you there'
2:41Are you there or are you just a decoy dream in my head'
2:50Am I home or am I simply tumbling all alone'
3:45I am floating away
3:48Lost in a silent ballet
3:52I'm dreaming you're out in the blue and I am right beside you
3:57Awake to take in the view
4:01Late nights and early parades
4:05Still photos and noisy arcades
4:09My darling we're both on the wing look down and keep on singing
4:13And we can go anywhere
4:17Are you there'
4:21Are you there'
Breathe and I'll carry you away into the velvet sky And we'll stir the stars around And watch them fall away into the Hudson Bay And plummet out of sight and sound The open summer breeze will sweep you through the hills Where I live in the alpine heights Below the Northern Lights I spend my coldest nights Alone awake and thinking of the weekend we were in love Home among these mountain tops can be so awfully dull A thousand miles from the tide But photos on the walls of New York shopping malls Distract me so I stay inside I wish the rockets stayed over the promenade Cuz I would make a hook and eye And fish them from the sky my darling she and I We're hanging on so take us high To sing the world goodbye: I am floating away Lost in a silent ballet I'm dreaming you're out in the blue and I am right beside you Awake to take in the view Late nights and early parades Still photos and noisy arcades My darling we're both on the wing look down and keep on singing And we can go anywhere Are you there' Are you there or are you just a decoy dream in my head' Am I home or am I simply tumbling all alone' I am floating away Lost in a silent ballet I'm dreaming you're out in the blue and I am right beside you Awake to take in the view Late nights and early parades Still photos and noisy arcades My darling we're both on the wing look down and keep on singing And we can go anywhere Are you there' Are you there'
