Lyrics

[Chorus]
Those wings were as wide as the road
We're driving in your shadow
A break in the clouds to lead us
Out from the cave of sleeplessness
Don't stop me when I start speeding
Hold on, the ground is gone
[Verse 1]
Those wings were as wide as the road
And I wish I was easy
To stretch out and find you across the bed
A kingdom where love kills loneliness
Don't stop me when I start dreaming
Hold on, the ground is gone
[Chorus]
All the strangers living in my brain
Got together and said, "You gotta change"
Love the danger, the California face
California dreaming in New York
[Verse 2]
Those wings were as wide as the road
From ledges by North Lake
The mountains succeed at stealing breath
And force you to turn and see yourself
To give in and let it all happen
Let go, the ground is gone
[Chorus]
All the strangers living in my brain
Got together and said, "You gotta change"
Love the danger, the California face
California dreaming in New York
[Bridge]
Love the danger
In falling in
Love the danger
In falling in
Love the danger
In falling in
Love the danger
In falling in love
[Chorus]
Those wings were as wide as the road
We're driving in your shadow
A break in the clouds to lead us
Out from the cave of sleeplessness
Don't stop me when I start speeding
[Chorus]
Hold on, the ground is gone
Hold on, the ground is gone
Hold on, the ground is gone
[Outro]
Love the danger
In falling in
Love the danger
In falling in
Love the danger
In falling in
Love the danger
In falling in love
