I close my eyes
and I smile
knowing that everything is all right,
to the core,
so close that door.
Is this happening?
My breath is on your hair.
I'm unaware that you open the blinds and let the city in.
You held my hand and we stand
just taking in everything.
I knew if from the start
so my arms are open wide.
Your head is on my stomach and we're
trying so hard not to fall asleep.
Here we are
on this 18th floor balcony we're both
flying away.
So we talk about mom's and dad's
about family past's.
just geting to know where we came from.
Our hearts
are on display
for all to see
I can't belive this is happening to me.
I raise my hand as if to show you that I was yours
that I was so yours for the taking,
I'm so yours for the taking.
That's when I felt the wind pick up
I grabbed the rail.
While choking up
these words to say
and then you kissed me.
I knew if from the start
my arms are open wide and
your head is on my stomach
and we're trying so hard
not to fall asleep.
Here we are on the
18th floor balcony we're both
flying away.
I'll try to sleep
to keep you in my dreams.
'Till I can bring you home with me
I try to sleep
and when I do I'll keep you in my dreams.
I knew it from the start
so my arms are open wide
and your head is on my stomach and we're
trying so hard not to fall asleep.
So here we are
on this 18th floor balcony.
I knew it from the start
so my arms are open wide
and your head is on my stomach.
No, we're not going to sleep.
Here we are on this 18th floor balcony
we're both
flying away.
