I tried to reach out and touch the sky
Well I grabbed the rope and I held on tight
Layed on my chest and gave up the sign
And I got pulled up in the warm sunshine

She treated me kind
Her skin was so smooth
She swallowed my fall
A little to soon

I tried to spread my wings and fly
I jumped the ramp and closed my eyes
The pieces shattered and that's when I knew
My throat would fill with the warm bayou

I didn't hear a sound
When I came crashing down
They had to pull me to the ground

I didn't hear a sound
When I came crashing down
They had to pull me to the ground

Itried to reach out and touch the sky
I grabbed the rope and held on tight
Layed on my chest and gave up the sign
And I got pulled up in the warm sunshine

She treated me kind
Her skin was so smooth
She swallowed my fall
A little to soon

And I didn't hear a sound
When I came crashing down
They had to pull me to the grou
