Before me there is nothing An empty space, an empty heart Reaching for forever Without a place to start Before me there's this angel Who's too afraid to cry Her wings they have been broken Help me teach her how to fly Before me there's an ocean I'm familiar with it's blue It's beyond my every notion I know its depth is true Before me there's a mountain I have to climb to see But I know there will be waiting A better view of you and me When I've swam across the ocean When I've climbed the mountain top When I've seen the angel flying Then I can die to heal your heart Above me there's an endless sky But the clouds are never still In every way like you Do we love the thing we kill? Can we fight the doubts we keep alive? Can we overcome all fear? Is the battle ever over? Is it ever really over? When I don't try to stop the sky When I let the clouds be free When nothing scares me anymore And I killed the doubt in me When I've swam across the ocean When I've climbed the mountain top When I've seen the angel flying Then I can die to heal your heart Before me there was nothing Empty space, an empty heart Reaching for forever Without a place to start Before me there's this angel Who's too afraid to cry And her wings they had been broken And now I watch her fly
