lyrics

The great thrill of heart wide open
On top of a cliff and staring down,
New light where the clouds have broken,
the ripples become waves, and I leave the ground

And now that the storm is through,
We’ll see what our hands can do
You fall down and I’ll fall too,
I’ll fall with you,
And then...

We looked to the sky, and you gave me your hand,
Our hearts racing fast, we took off and ran,
All through the night, I know not how far,
But I’ve seen you in love, and I know who you are

Carried off by a wind out of somewhere,
Our eyes meet and we know, that it’s time to go
and there’s only one way we’ll get there,
We step into the light, and close the door

And now that the world is new,
We’ll see what our hands can do
You fall down and I’ll fall too,
I’ll fall with you,
And then...

We looked to the sky, and you gave me your hand,
Our hearts racing fast, we took off and ran,
All through the night, I know not how far,
But I’ve seen you in love, and I know who you are

We finally collapsed in a place we could hide,
You had the face of a child, and the heart of a bride,
And all in a moment you were lit like a star,
Now I’ve seen you in love and I know who you are
