[Verse: Andrea Ferro & Cristina Scabbia]
Skin so cold, I knew you'd go away
And now I put you down to lay
Nothing to feel for you
This was our last dance
[Pre-Chorus: Cristina]
Closer and closer, it's time to surrender
To the desire that you cannot mention...
Don't try to breathe
Don't try to run away...
[Chorus: Cristina, Andrea]
But I'm reachin' for the sky... (won't you please stay?)
Gonna fly...
I'm reachin' for the sky... (won't you please stay?)
Gonna fly...
[Bridge: Cristina]
With a smile I watch you go
You'll never know I didn't cry
With a smile I saw you die
You'll never know I didn't cry
[Pre-Chorus: Cristina]
Closer and closer, it's time to surrender
To the desire that you cannot mention...
Don't try to breathe
Don't try to run away
[Chorus: Cristina, Andrea]
But I'm reachin' for the sky... (won't you please stay?)
Gonna fly...
I'm reachin' for the sky... (won't you please stay?)
Gonna fly...
To fly
[Drum/Guitar Instrumental]
[Verse: Andrea & Cristina]
No more fear, they said you were so weak
And now I put you down to lay
Nothing to feel for you
This was our last dance...
[Pre-Chorus: Cristina]
Closer and closer, it's time to surrender
To the desire that you cannot mention...
Don't try to breathe
Don't try to run away...
[Chorus/Outro: Cristina, Andrea]
But I'm reachin' for the sky... (won't you please stay?)
Gonna fly...
And I'm reachin' for the sky... (won't you please stay?)
Gonna fly...
And I'm reachin' for the sky... (won't you please stay?)
Gonna fly...
And I'm reachin' for the sky... (won't you please stay?)
Gonna fly... (won't you please stay...?)
