You stole my hands

From folded arms

And pulled me in

I stood no chance

With breath so cold

The silence grows

And words so soft

You let me go

And in the blinking of an eye

We both fell from the sky

When something happens fast

Is it destined not to last?

And, next time I'll go slow

And fall like a feather, oh

And further down the line

When I'm not afraid to climb

Well that's when I'll let go

And fall like a feather, slow

A thousand hours was all we had

I should be grateful least for that

And even for the grace you've given me

And how we fly when we're so young

We burn our wings against the sun

Searching for our greatest victory

In the blinking of an eye

We both fell from the sky

When something happens fast

Is it destined not to last?

And next time I'll go slow

And fall like a feather, oh

And further down the line

When I'm not afraid to climb

Well that's when I'll let go

And fall like a feather, slow

A deeper love, a sweeter love

Is creeping up and now it's taking hold

I feel the high, it's true no lie

And only you can pray 'til I don't know

I'm ready to let go

When something happens fast

Is it destined not to last?

And next time I'll go slow

And fall like a feather, oh

And further down the line

When I'm not afraid to climb

Well that's when I'll let go

And fall like a feather, slow
