down, down, down, down
until you can go no further
down, down, down, down
until you find the bottom of the dark
down, down, down, down
settle at the bottom of the cool, cool dark
will you come to me?

will you come to me as an angel
as a man, as someone I've waited for?
will you come to me as a monster in a child's room
as a shadow at the window?
will you come to me as a fire burning
as the end of the world, as a revelation?
will you come to me?

I've been sitting here all morning
I've been trying to remember
at one time it was so clear to me
the longer we've made it
the longer we've made it

As a child I flew over this house
I flew though children can't fly
I've been trying to remember
the longer we've made it
the longer we've made it

don't let your wings drag so low

sometimes I feel it's been a long ride
sometimes I think what does it matter
sometimes I'm glad we are still alive
the longer we've made it
the longer we've made it

raise up your wings
don't you see where it is?
just lift off avoiding the hole there
in that place, you see it now
don't you see? don't you see?
Lift off and over it, over it, over it, over it,
don't you see now? over that place and you're home
