Stealing from a new day In a summer month of Sundays Just me and a friend Falling from the sky We left a room of nobodies For a perfect field of strawberries And a world without end Our fingers reached the sky And when I fly Well I hope you're waiting for me And when I die I just hope you're waiting for me 'Cos it's a long way to a fall Such a long way to fall Such a long way to fall Without your hands to carry me In the chapter of the sundown I could never get my head 'round Two distant friends Sharing the same sky You never meant to know me But you couldn't help but show me That you had the wings To teach me how to fly Any when I fly Well I hope you're waiting for me And when I die I just hope you're waiting for me 'Cos it's a long way to fall Such a long way to fall Such a long way to fall Without your hands to carry me And when I fly Well I hope you're waiting for me When I die I just hope you're waiting for me 'Cos it's a long way to fall Such a long way to fall Such a long way to fall Without your hands to carry me Without your hands to carry me
