Say that you love me
Don't let me slip away
Break through illusion
And take a leap today
Here at the crossroads
We're suspended in our minds
Waiting and hoping
We will not be left behind

'Cause I want to be with you
But I need a place to start
I'm surrounded and captured
By the armies of your heart
And I feel so alive when I sing
And I hope you've realized:

Higher and higher
And higher as we climb
Birds on a wire
We're frozen in the sky
Paint me a doorway
And I'll magic you a key
Tell me a story
Where the hero sets me free...

'Cause I want to be with you
But I need a place to start
I'm surrounded and captured
By the armies of your heart
And I feel so alive - so I sing
And I hope you've realized:
I will stay here
Safe and sheltered in your palm
Till it's time to wing towards the sun

Tiger, tiger burning bright
Running swiftly through the night
Hunted down and caught in flight;
Who will save you now?

'Cause I want to be with you
And I knew it from the start
I'm surrounded and captured
By the armies of your heart
And I feel so alive
When I sing and I follow
As the melody takes flight
Yeah, I feel so alive
When the song disappears into the sky
It is time
