I fly
Above the skies tonight
I fly
From the silence in your eyes

If I could be the one
To chase away your fears
If I could be the one
To change your life

I can’t escape this love
I can’t deny my need
If only I could stay
Forever in your arms

So I fly
Into your dreams tonight
So I fly
So I can be with you

And I fly above the trees
And I fly above the world
And I remember the first day
I saw your face

You looked me in the eyes
And I couldn’t help but fear
That the silence would drag me in
And I’d never be the same

So I fly
Above the skies tonight
I fly
From the fear in your eyes

I can’t forget the day
That I first saw your face
Or when your eyes met with mine
And all I saw was your pain.

The silence there
Intoxicated me
And I vowed to chase away
All that fear you held inside

So I fly
Above the skies tonight
And I fly
So I could be with you

And I fear this might be one
This could break me now
Yet I cannot turn away
From the hope that you have given me

I want to be with you
But the fear of giving in
Keeps me away
How can I let you in
When my eyes reflect yours.
