I close my eyes
And I smile, knowing that everything is alright
To the core, so close that door
Is this happening?
My breath is on your hair, I'm unaware
That you opened the blinds and let the city in
God, you held my hand... and we stared
Just taking in everything
And I knew it from the start
So my arms are opened wide
Your head is on my stomach
And we're... we're trying so hard not to fall asleep
Here we are, on this 18th floor balcony
We're both... flying away...
We talked, about moms and dads
About family pasts
Just getting to know where we came from
Our hearts were on display
For all to see
I can't believe this is happening to me and
I raised my hands as if to show you I was yours
That I was so yours for the taking
I'm so yours for the taking
And 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, yeah....
And I knew it from the start
So my arms are opened wide
Your head is on my stomach
And we're... we're trying so hard not to fall asleep
Here we are, on this 18th floor balcony
We're both... flying away...
And I 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 opened 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 yeah
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 (sleep)
Here we are, on this 18th floor balcony we're both...
Flying away...
