tonight and the rest of my life

Singer:nina gordon

down to the earth i fell

with dripping wings

heavy things won't fly

and the sky might catch on fire

and burn the axis of the world

that's why i prefer a sunless sky

to the glittering and stinging in my eyes

i feel so light

this is all i want to feel tonight

i feel so light

tonight and the rest of my life

gleaming in the dark sea

i'm as light as air

floating there breathlessly

when the dream dissolves

i open up my eyes

i realize that

everything is shoreless sea

a weightlessness is passing over me

everything is waves and stars

the universe is resting in my arms
