On the seventh floor
I can feel your body brushing against mine
Look at me, I’m finely caught up in
the rapture of your smile divine!
The lift is going down
and yet it feels as if we’re soaring high
Body and soul defying gravity
will take the measure of the sky
From this moment on I’ll cherish what I know of you
Believe in what is yet to come
For as many days and nights we both shall breathe
To meet you in a state of bliss
I make a vow to never miss
the traces of your thoughts
Half way down the ride
the cabin lurches hard, lights flicker, dim, shut off
In the dark I’m sealing with a kiss
the promise I’m bound never to dismiss
Pulling at the doors
we slam at every button sending no commands
Through the vents intoxicating fumes
are wafting in to change the course of events
From this moment on I’ll cherish what I know of you
Believe in what is yet to come
For as many days and nights we both shall breathe
To meet you in a state of bliss
I make a vow to never miss
the traces of your thoughts
Behind the metal walls
the sound of a rushing crowd is fading out
Between floors, trapped, we scream and shout
No one seems to hear our desperate calls
Phantoms in my brain,
images of loving memories take a spin
On the ground all hell is breaking loose
We’re going up soon where the air is thin
From this moment on I’ll cherish what I know of you
Believe in what is yet to come
For as many days and nights we both shall breathe
To meet you in a state of bliss
I make a vow to never miss
the traces of your thoughts
