lyrics

i feel like everything paused when you called
a brief moment of bliss, of clarity
like the snow wasnt going to reach the ground anytime soon
and we might have time to watch the moon

from my second floor i avoid the world below
but even way up there, the strong winds they blow and blow
hanging on to you like a child to a mother's thigh
my whole world, i just deny

stop time, stop gravity
watch the snow as it floats horizontally
side by side you and i side to side we will fly
this is the only way we can stay alive

when i said goodbye i refused to let the day begin
i think im still refusing
i lay back in bed and stared at the streams of changing light
the sun on the snow can be so bright

indeed this snow is falling down. down. down
and i know i must begin
oh it's just one of those days
where im not sure if i really can
i think i need to feel your hand

stop time, stop gravity
watch the snow as it floats horizontally
side by side you and i side to side we will fly
this is the only way we can stay alive

when i speak to you i finally feel free
even if you're far away and can barely barely hear me
though the dogs may bark at you and the dark has pulled you deep
ill try to sing you right back to sleep

the sunkissed smile on your face is taunting
but the snow outside is far too daunting
so I write songs here and wait for your return
baby we've still got some things to learn

stop time, stop gravity
watch the snow as it floats horizontally
side by side you and i side to side we will fly
this is the only way we can stay alive
