i love the feeling when we lift off
watching the world so small below
i love the dreaming when i think of
the safety in the clouds out my window
i wonder what keeps us so high up
could there be a love beneath these wings
if we suddenly fall should I scream out
or keep very quite and cling to my mouth as i'm crying
so frightened of dying
relax yes i'm trying
this fear's got a hold on me

yes, this fear's got a hold on me
yes, this fear's got a hold on me

I love the quiet of the night time
when the sun is drowned in a deathly sea
I can feel my heart beating as i speed from
the sense of time catching up with me
the sky set out like a pathway

but who decides which route we take
as people drift into a dream world
I close my eyes as my hands shake and when i see a new day
who's driving this anyway
I picture my own grave
cause fear's got a hold on me

yes, this fear's got a hold on me
yes, this fear's got a hold on me

yes, this fear's got a hold on me
yes, this fear's got a hold on me

Floating neither up or down I wonder when i'll hit the ground
will the earth beneath my body shake
and cast your sleeping hearts awake
could it tremble stars from moon light skies
could it drag a tear from your cold eyes
I live on the right side I sleep in the left
that's why everything's got to be love or death

yes this fear's got a hold on me
