WALKING ON AIR

Skywriting: It says 'I'm wild about you' and I'm doing loop-de-loops
A human cannon ball sails right on through the 'O' of a burning hoop
The tattooed man is running out of space — he's really looking blue
But what I feel is written right across my face and he's got nothing on you

I don't need a safety net 'cause I've already fallen for you
I feel like waltzing with the dancing bear
And I don't need a tightrope 'cause you've got me — Walking On Air

Daredevil he stands on the wings of a plane with one hand waving free
My head is peaking through the stratosphere as I approach Zero-G
The tall-man's legs are pretty straight and true but he can't make it far
If I were as big as my love for you I'd go tripping from star to star

I don't need a safety net 'cause I've already fallen for you...

In the circus of life the attractions are all death defying
So hold on to your whip and your chair
Cause sooner or later you'll be in the ring with a lion
Wishin’ you were — Walking On Air

Lion tamer heads into the lion's mouth and all doubt disappears
It's only by entrusting himself to the trainer that the lion loses all fears
I’m looking at that giant big top of the sky with a longing just to fly
But that's nothing compared to how I feel to gaze in to your eyes

I don't need a safety net 'cause I've already fallen for you...
