Random Song Of The Week #26

Blue October -- 18th Floor Balcony
Album -- Foiled (2006)

I close my eyes and I smile 
Knowing that everything is alright 
To the core 
So close that door 
Is this happening? 

My breath is on your hair 
I'm unaware 
That you opened the blinds and let the city in 
God, you held my hand 
And we stand 
Just taking in everything.

And I knew it from the start 
So my arms are open wide 
Your head is on my stomach 
And we're, we're trying so hard not to fall asleep 
But Here we are 
On this 18th floor balcony... 
We're both flying away. 

So we talked about mom's and dad's 
About family pasts 
Just getting to know where we came from 
Our hearts were on display 
For all to see 
I can't believe this is happening to me and, 
I raised my hands as if to show you that I was yours 
That I was so yours for the taking 
I'm so yours for the taking and
That's when I felt the wind pick up 
I grabbed the rail while choking up 
These words to say and then you kissed me... here

And I knew it from the start 
So My arms are open wide 
Your head is on my stomach 
And we're, we're trying so hard not to fall asleep 
But Here we are 
On this 18th floor balcony... 
We're both flying away

And I'll try to sleep
To keep you in my dreams
'Till I can bring you home with me
I'll try to sleep 
And when I do I'll keep you in my... dreams 

And I knew it from the start 
So my arms are open wide 
And your head is on my stomach 
And we're, we're trying so hard not to fall asleep
So here we are
On this 18th floor balcony... 

Yeah
And I knew it from the start
So my arms are open wide
Your head is on my stomach 
No... We're not going to sleep, sleep
Here we are
On this 18th floor baclony... 
We're both flying away.
