Song lyrics:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We’re walking in the air<\/div>\n
We’re floating in the moonlit sky<\/div>\n
The people far below are sleeping as we fly<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I’m holding very tight<\/div>\n
I’m riding in the midnight blue<\/div>\n
I’m finding I can fly so high above with you<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Far across the world<\/div>\n
The villages go by like dreams<\/div>\n
The rivers and the hills<\/div>\n
The forests and the streams<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Children gaze open mouth<\/div>\n
Taken by surprise<\/div>\n
Nobody down below believes their eyes<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We’re surffing in the air<\/div>\n
We’re swimming in the frozen sky<\/div>\n
We’re drifting over icy<\/div>\n
Mountain floating by<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Suddenly swooping low on an ocean deep<\/div>\n
Arousing of a mighty monster from its sleep<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We’re walking in the air<\/div>\n
We’re floating in the midnight sky<\/div>\n
And everyone who sees us greets us as we fly<\/div>\n
