Don't let my feet get off the ground

Today I'm glad to be standing here

But all the time I spent tunnelling down

To some place where I'm not so clear



I've been holding out for this time

Standing straight in my own line

Was hoping you're making it too



All the hours we were learning to fly

We're chasing night-lights round the room

I can never repay when I learnt from you

I know you're seeing it your own way too



Your head just went for another walk

But it's coming home and it hangs in the hall

Your head in your hand as you're suffering

But you I know what state you're in



Fall on my knees and my hair rolls around

But even on my knees I know I can stand

If it's coming home it's coming for you

I can see me standing with Dunston and you



I've been holding out for my neighbour

Standing straight for my brother

Was hoping you're making it too
