about

"No time to waste, we'll navigate all across the sky / Back down to earth, we'll race for first..."

A song about finding what you've been looking for.

lyrics

This might not be how we planned it, but,
The time came, all the same, mostly due to luck.

Now we’re here, no trace of fear, sitting on the ledge
Dangling feet caress the scene spread out below.

I pledge this time
Cause my love’s a bottom line
And I swear it’s true
There’s no one who’s quite like you

(Chorus)
Don’t look away now, I can’t say how
We have come so far
But, we can’t fade out, blend in the crowd
As we are

And I wouldn’t have it any other way
I’d fall again for you any other day

You by my side is a joyride that I can’t explain
Or abbreviate; tip my hat to fate
‘Cause you sedate my pain

You are all I need
You are just what I need

(Post-Chorus)
Ooo, ooo, ooo…

No time to waste, we’ll navigate
All across the sky
Back down to earth, we’ll race for first
Baby, you and I

There ain’t no reason to avoid the seasons
With you by my side
Trips and scrapes illuminate the tightrope
And act as our guide

Through dark
And all that we need, we’ve got
And I swear it’s true
There’s no one who’s quite like you

(Chorus / Post-Chorus)

You are all I need
You are just what I need
You are all I need
You are just what I need
