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 a love beneath these wings? If we suddenly fall should I scream out? Or keep very quiet and cling to My mouth as I'm crying? So frightened of dying Relax, yes, I'm trying But 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 I love the quiet of the night time When the sun is drowned in the deathly sea I can feel my heart beating as I speed from The sense of time catching up with me The sky's 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 And when I see a new day Who's driving this anyway? I picture my own grave 'Cause 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 Floating neither up or down I wonder when I'll 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 live on the right side, I sleep in the left That's why everything's got to be love or death 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 Yes, this fear's got a hold on...
