Waiting For The Sky To Fall - Lyrics by Matraca Berg


Lyrics

(matraca berg/wendy waldman)

There's a firefly in love with a distant star
Looking longingly up through the atmosphere
Tiny beacon flies, finds his wings too soon
I watch him make his way, blinded by the moon

I want to believe that the wind would know where to take me
I want to believe that a dream could get me by
But i'm just waiting here for you
Waiting for the sky to fall

You're far away, on the edge of the universe
A galaxy swirling across the room
Tell me, is it cold out there? is there air for me?
Would you even care if i could not breathe?

I want to believe that the wind would know where to take me
I want to believe that a dream could get me by
But i'm just waiting here for you
Waiting for the sky to fall

The laws of gravity cannot tie down my soul
How long can i hold on before i let you go

I want to believe that the wind would know where to take me
I want to believe that a dream could get me by
But i'm just waiting here for you
Waiting for the sky to fall
