Trails

It's a long walk back from a hike to the top of a tree
Oh, you go up, up, up
Just to go down, down, down
Although you've come so close to the edge
You couldn't leave the ground

It's a long road made of good old bones
Are the ones too afraid of the climb
Up, up, up
Just to go down, down, down
Fly, love, go fly
Let the earth stay low
Fly, love, go fly
Let the earth stay low

(Fly, love, fly, love, fly, love)
I close my eyes, prepare to cry
Into a lonely fantasy
I'll spread my arms, embrace the wind
And be there, holding on to me
Once I won't let go
I won't let go
I won't let go

And inside the storm, the wind goes strong
The sweet embrace now feels like chains
Inside the darkened sky, I see
There is no vision leading me
I fight but with nowhere to run
Too far from earth to near the Sun

I close my eyes, prepare to cry
Into a lonely fantasy
I'll spread my arms, embrace the wind and feel it holding on to me
Once I woke up
I want to fly
