[Verse 1]
High above the world
Hardly a sound to break the spell
The hum of changing air
In a dimensionless hotel
Now the edge is shown
And the illusion starts to fade
The light begins to turn
Leaving just sequences of shade
[Chorus]
You wanted a dream
Something to feel
Wanted the light without the reel
You wanted a world
Without any pain
Wanted a sun without the rain
Like turning on the news but turning down the sound
[Verse 2]
High above the cars
Over the traffic and the crowds
Human life refined
Spending our time among the clouds
[Chorus]
Watching the cars below
Sparkling chains
Watching the sky drawn over by planes
Imagine the world below
Watching the moon
Falling into the night so soon
The towers are so high, the hours are so few
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
You wanted a dream
Something to feel
Wanted the light without the reel
You wanted a world
Without any pain
Wanted a sun without the rain
Like turning on the news but turning down the sound
[Verse 1]
Now the edge is shown
And the illusion starts to fade
