When Lyrics

Before me there is nothing.
An empty s***e, an empty heart.
Reaching for forever.
Without a place to start.
Before me there's this angel.
Who's too afraid to cry.
Her wings they have been broken.
Help me teach her how to fly.

Before me there's an ocean.
I'm familiar with it's blue.
It's beyond my every notion.
I know its depth is true.

Before me there's a mountain.
I have to climb to see.
But I know there will be waiting.
A better view of you and me.

When I've swam across the ocean.
When I've climbed the mountaintop.
When I've seen the angel flying.
Then I can die to heal your heart.
Above me there's an endless sky.
But the clouds are never still.
In every way like you.
Do we love the thing we kill.

Can we fight the doubts we keep alive.
Can we overcome all fear.
Is the battle ever over.
Is it ever really over.

When I don't try to stop the sky.
When I let the clouds be free.
When nothing scares me anymore.
When I killed the doubt in me.
When I've swam across the ocean.
When I've climbed the mountaintop.
When I've seen the angel flying.
Then I can die to heal your heart.

Before me there was nothing.
Empty s***e, an empty heart.
Reaching for forever.
Without a place to start.

Before me there's this angel.
Who was too afraid to cry.
And her wings they had been broken.
And now I watch her fly.
