18th floor balcony

I close my eyes and I smile
Knowing that everything is alright
To the core
So close that door
Is this happening?
My breathe is on your hair
I´m unaware
That you opened the blinds and let the city in
God, you held my hand
And we stand
Just taking in everything.
And I knew it from the start
So my arms are open wide
Your head is on my stomach
And we´re trying so hard not to fall asleep
But Here we are
On this 18th floor balcony...
we´re both flying away.
So we talk about moms and dads
About family pasts
Just getting to know where we came from
Our hearts were on display
For all to see
I can´t believe this is happening to me.
I raised my hand as if to show you that I was yours
That I was so yours for the taking
I´m so yours for the taking
Thats when I felt the wind pick up
I grabbed the rail while choking up
These words to say and then you kissed me...
I knew it from the start
My arms are open wide
And your head is on my stomach
And we´re trying so hard not to fall asleep
Here we are
On this 18th floor balcony...
we´re both flying away.
And I´ll try to sleep
to keep you in my dreams
´Til I can bring you home with me
I´ll try to sleep
And when I do I´ll keep you in my... dreams
I knew it from the start
So my arms are open wide
And your head is on my stomach
And we´re trying so hard not to fall sleep
So here we are
On this 18th floor balcony
I knew it from the start
So my arms are open wide
And your head is on my stomach
We´re not going to sleep
Here we are on this 18th floor balcony
we´re both..
flying away
Knowing that everything is alright
To the core
So close that door
Is this happening?
My breathe is on your hair
I´m unaware
That you opened the blinds and let the city in
God, you held my hand
And we stand
Just taking in everything.
And I knew it from the start
So my arms are open wide
Your head is on my stomach
And we´re trying so hard not to fall asleep
