Earthbound
[Verse 1]
My heart flew in my mouth
The moment that your eyes locked mine
I blurted something out
Along these lines:
We're earthbound
But we all long for flight...

[Verse 2]
My heart's worn on my sleeve:
I'd offer all I could contrive
If only you'd believe
You flood my mind
We're earthbound
But you spring my heart alive

[Chorus]
Eathbound
We're earthbound

[Verse 3]
My heart's stopped in its tracks –
What train of thought has just arrived
While gravity's cruel tax
Drags me to ground?
We're earthbound
But you spring my heart to life
We spin around
We're earthbound
But you spring me free to flight
[Chorus]
Eathbound
We're earthbound
All earthbound...
But we all long for flight

[Bridge]
Heartbreak the anagram:
But hero Dan had no brute boar hunted;
Doubt he ran but heard no burned oath;
Undo breath, do burn hate, be hard unto
Burned oath, undo breath...
Heartbreak the anagram:
Undo breath, burned oath
Undo breath, burned oath
Undo breath

[Outro]
Earthbound
