lyrics

Floating in the atmosphere
the sun reveals the atlas in the morning,
there’s dew drops in the aeroplane
the windows misting up again,
its foggy.

Oh I’d walk round the sky,
wings open wide
but its falling.
Oh I’d fly until night
but the string on this kite
is your heartache.

The sunlight drifts across the room
as we twist the altitude is rising,
the dust reveals the path it takes
i won’t make the same mistake
im hiding.

Oh Id fly round the world
I’ve got wings to unfurl
but I’m worried;
if I leave here tonight
who will provide you
with your heartache?

Is it cruel to be kind
cause this love is divine
but its hurting
and if love is for life
why do we fight
for your heartache?

I guess you’ll have to hold on, hold on
cause I’m long gone, long gone
It takes time for the pain of love to go
so hold on, hold on

Passing over evergreens,
a night and day of postcard scenes below us,
as the sunsets on the silhouette,
we’ve got the night time to forget the darkness,

but as I close my eyes
your face comes to mind,
girl I’m sorry.
They say love is blind
but there’s nowhere to hide
from your heartache.
