Waiting for the Sky to Fall Songtext
von Matraca Berg

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
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
Waiting here for you
Waiting for the sky to fall
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
Waiting here for you
Waiting for the sky to fall
Mm, yeah

(Waiting for the sky to fall)
I want to believe
(Waiting for the sky to fall)
I want to believe
(Waiting for the sky to fall)
I want to believe, yeah, yeah
(Waiting for the sky to fall)
I want to believe, yeah
(Waiting for the sky to fall)
I want to believe
