If the wind turns, if I hit a squall

Allow the ground to find its brutal way to me

I feel lighter than I have in so much time

I′ve crossed the border line of weightless

One deep breath out from the sky

I've reached a rarer height now that I can confirm

All our weight is just a burden offered to us by the world

And though I burn how could I fall?

When I am lifted by every word you say to me

If anything could fall at all, it′s the world

That falls away from me

You have me floatin' like a feather on the sea

While you're as heavy as the world

That you hold your hands beneath

Once I had wondered what was holdin′ up the ground

But I can see that all along, love, it was you all the way down

Leave it now, I am sky-bound

If you need to, darling, lean your weight to me

We′ll float away, but if we fall

I only pray, don't fall away from me

I do not have wings, love, I never will

Soarin′ over a world you are carryin'

If these heights should bring my fall

Let me be your own

Icarian carrion

If the wind turns, if I hit a squall

Allow the ground to find its brutal way to me

If I should fall, on that day

I only pray, don′t fall away from me
