Parachute
(T.B. Schmit)
[**feat. Graham Nash & Kenny Wayne Shepherd:]
See that shiny plane up in the steel gray sky Going faster than the speed of sound It don't care about a thing, it just keeps passing by Oblivious to everything's that down
If I was on a cloud then I could hitch a ride That's how I would finally get to you I'd grab onto the wing and at the perfect time I'd open up my parachute
Sailing through the sky Soaring way up high
When you think you've had enough of all this living on your own And you feel you're just about to break in two When you're stuck in overdrive and you're longing for home It's time to change your attitude Open up your parachute
See the raindrops pounding on my window pane Tapping out their rhythms from above They don't pay any mind to those alone within Thinkin' 'bout the ones they love
Fifty-two floors up above the city lights Stranded in my temporary nest The hotel operator, she says, 'Have a good night' I lay down, close my eyes, and do my best
Fitful, sleepless nights Dreaming I can fly
When you think you've had enough of all this living on your own And you feel you're just about to break in two When you're stuck in overdrive and you're longing for home Come down to earth and change your mood And open up your parachute
Fitful, sleepless nights Dreaming I can fly
When you think you've had enough of all this living on your own And you feel you're just about to break in two When you're stuck in overdrive and you're longing for home It's time to change your altitude Open up your parachute
Come down to earth and change your mood Open up your parachute
