A Four-Letter Word

{ words & music by Simon Spire }

 

Sky elevators

A four-letter word

Lie by the pavement

Down here on earth

 

Half-finished castles

Blueprints for change

We’ll leave them behind here as we

Forget our names

*

If I could fly I’d take us only where the light is found

And never come back down, never have to hit the ground

 

*

Would all of the planets

Spin twice as fast?

And would all of the boundaries

Shatter like glass?

*

If I could fly I’d take us only where the light is found

And never come back down, never have to hit the ground

If you believe then I’ll believe in what we’re fighting for

(All the waiting stars will sing out)

That this is real, not a dreamer’s world anymore

(Shining just for you and me now)

*

And we would fly for all the world, show them how

And nothing more would keep us here on the ground

For every voice unheard

Live a four-letter word

A four-letter word

*

If I could fly I’d take us only where the light is found

And never come back down, never have to hit the ground

If you believe then I’ll believe in what we’re fighting for

That this is real, not a dreamer’s world anymore

*

Sky elevators

A four-letter word

Lie by the pavement

Down here on earth
