When You Come Back Down - Nickel Creek

You got to leave me now.
You got to go alone.
You got to chase a dream,
one that's all your own
before it slips away.

When you're flyin' high
take my heart along.
I'll be the harmony
to every lonely song
that you'll learn to play.

And when you're soaring through the air,
I'll be your solid ground.
Take every chance you dare.
I'll still be there,
when you come back down...
when you come back down.

I keep lookin' up
awaitin' your return.
My greatest fear will be
that you will crash and burn,
and I won't feel your fire.

I'll be the other hand
that always holds the line
connected in between
your sweet heart and mine.
I'm strung out on that wire.

And I'll be on the other end
to hear you when you call.
Angel you were born to fly
and if you get too high,
I'll catch you when you fall...
catch you when you fall.

Your memory is the sunshine
every new day brings.
I know the sky is calling.
Angel let me help you with your wings.

And when you're soaring through the air
I'll be your solid ground.
Take every chance you dare.
I'll still be there
when you come back down....

Take every chance you dare.
I'll still be there
when you come back down...
when you come back down.
