When first I took flight you could only describe it as falling
Faced with such heights in a moment decided I'm all in
And the floor fell away and I knew I was naked before her eyes
And I'd no words to say, too afraid she'd escape
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah
So we spent the days learning all sorts of ways to grow our love
While other flames faded we'd store up our faith in the two of us
I remember your face and the way that we lay as you said, "be mine"
And I wished we could stay forever this way
Skip through the town in the days dying light
Her laughter: the sound of the rays declining
And we'd leap and we'd bound, soaring, twisting around ourselves
High off the ground like two birds in flight
Came the time for the last sun to rise over me and you
I looked in your eyes said, "I'm ready to fly if you want me to"
And the floor fell away and a whole 'nother space just opened up
There was no need to stay and we left the same way we'd always done
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah
Slipped through the town in the days dying light
Her laughter: the sound of the rays declining
And we'd leap and we'd bound, soaring, twisting around ourselves
High off the ground like two birds in flight
Like two birds in flight
Like two birds in flight
