Letra da Música

Into the distance a ribbon of black 
Stretched to the point of no turning back 
A flight of fancy on a windswept field 
Standing alone my senses real 
A fatal attraction holding me fast how 
Can I escape this irresistible grasp? 

Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies 
Tongue-tied and twisted 
Just an earth-bound misfit, I 

Ice is forming on the tips of my wings 
Unheeded warnings 
I thought I thought of everything 
No navigator to find my way home 
Unladened, empty and turned to stone 
A soul in tension that's learning to fly 
Condition grounded but determined to try 
 
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies 
Tongue-tied and twisted 
Just an earth-bound misfit, I 

Above the planet on a wing and a prayer 
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air 
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly 
Out of the corner of my watering eye 
A dream unthreatened by the morning light 
Could blow this soul 
Right through the roof of the night 
There's no sensation to compare with this 
Suspended animation, a state of bliss 
 
Can't keep my mind from the circling skies 
Tongue-tied and twisted 
Just an earth-bound misfit, I
