Verse
G Em
I was spinning through the air when I thought my life was ending

But I was really on the ground and you were lying right next to me

I looked right into your eyes, and I found myself pretending

That we were high above the canopy but tethered to the trunk of a tree

Verse 2
G Em
I was falling to the ground when I felt my body breaking
C D
But I had fallen in your lap, with my head tilted back
G Em
So I could see the sun eclipsed by your hair that left a halo hanging
C D G
Waiting above so when you go you don't have to wait to get your wings
