[Verse 1]
When he went
Scattered on the floor like glass
Were the promises that he never kept
Nothing left
So when you came along I guess
Suddenly I was there again
I was there again
[Chorus]
See I was terrified of falling
So I stayed tethered to the ground
It’s safer than the clouds
But now I fly
Oh I fly
[Verse 2]
There’s a chance
We might slip enmeshed
Tangled we tumble to the ground
That’s all I get
The data shows that taking risks
Will lead to me getting hurt again
Will I be hurt again?
[Chorus]
See I was terrified of falling
So I stayed tethered to the ground
It’s safer than the clouds
But now I fly
Oh I fly
[Bridge]
You are free
To be
Betrayed again
As for me
You see
I’m afraid again
But I wanna trust
Wanna love
Wanna hope again
Wanna run
Wanna rest
Wanna live again
[Verse 3]
Here take my hand
Together we do our dance
Dysfunctional as it may be
Two left feet
And spiderwebs of arms and legs
Convince me that I could love again
I could love again.
[Chorus]
See I was terrified of falling
So I stayed tethered to the ground
It’s safer than the clouds
But now I fly
With you I fly
