I felt the breeze I thought I was flying Floating at ease above the horizon The stars in my eyes don't realize that I'm moving faster So unaware of this free falling disaster I used to be afraid It was a long way down I couldn't find a way from crashing into the ground You break my fall just like a parachute Both feet on the ground My mind is so clear in this atmosphere I'm gravity bound Your heart beats away all my fears Shadows are growing on the ground Free-fallers loosing altitude Billowing cloud-like parasols Make beautiful rescues I used to be afraid It was a long way down I couldn't find a way from crashing into the ground You break my fall just like a parachute I'm hanging by a thread You're breaking my fall You are my parachute I'm hanging by a thread to your heart It was a long way down You break my fall just like a parachute Your arms above me start to catch me now You're breaking my fall You are my parachute You break my fall just like a parachute I'm hanging by a thread You're breaking my fall You are my parachute
