Soft Place To Land

Kristen Hall/Mary Gauthier Look at me, on the high wire As I attempt to balance safety with desire Step right up, get your tickets here What you see should have you trembling with fear Without a net, here I go Ladies and gentlemen I promise you a show As I’m crashing through the clouds I used to walk on Reaching out for unfamiliar hands Falling into the eyes of strangers I wanna smile but I can’t I’m looking for a soft place to land When you’re up so high it’s hard to know If you look foolish waving to the crowd below It was plain, to everyone but me Only a fool forgets the pull of gravity But for a while, didn’t I fly? Didn’t I shine like a star up in the sky? Now I’m crashing through the clouds I used to walk on Reaching out for unfamiliar hands Falling into the eyes of strangers I wanna cry but I can’t I’m looking for a soft place to land Bridge I remember blue sky I remember company I remember laughter I remember everything As I’m crashing through the clouds I used to walk on Reaching out for unfamiliar hands Falling into the eyes of strangers I wanna cry, but I can’t I’m looking for a soft place to land And it’s hard to find a soft place to land Ain’t it hard to find a soft place to land
