Lyrics

[Verse 1] I love the feeling when we lift off Watching the world so small below I love the dreaming when I think of The safety in the clouds out my window I wonder what keeps us so high up Could there be love beneath these wings? If we suddenly fall, should I scream out? Or keep very quiet and cling to [Pre-Chorus] My mouth as I'm crying So frightened of dying "Relax", yes, I'm trying But fear's got a hold on me [Chorus] Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] I love the quiet of the nighttime When the sun has drowned in a deathly sea I can feel my heart beating as I speed from The sense of time catching up with me The sky set out like a pathway But who decides which route we take? As people drift into a dreamworld I close my eyes as my hands shake [Pre-Chorus] And will I see a new day? Who's driving this anyway? I picture my own grave 'Cause fear's got a hold on me [Chorus] Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me [Bridge] Floating neither up or down I wonder when I hit the ground Will the earth beneath my body shake And cast your sleeping hearts awake? Could it tremble stars from moonlit skies? Could it drag a tear from your cold eyes? I'll live on the right side and sleep on the left That's why everything's got to be love or death [Chorus] Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me
