lyrics

Weightless and surrendered
To the pull of the wind
I rise
Though still in bed this sleepless night
I’m hang gliding
Up where no one has to die

Up here I can sail around
The twinkling candle lights
And finally let you go
For an hour or so

I go hang gliding
So I won’t forget
I go hang gliding
When I need to be with you again
I go hang gliding

Up here I can laugh and cry
And no one calls to ask me how I am
By those tubes and beeping monitors
I held your hand
You had to go
That much I understand

But the truth hurts worse at night
The wind picks up and I take flight
And finally let you go
For an hour or so

I go hang gliding
So I won’t forget
I go hang gliding
When I need to be with you again
I go hang gliding

Remembering you and feeling like this
They say won’t help me get through it
But it’s the only way I know
To let go

Walking past the window shops
Traffic, crowds and coffee spots
The world goes on
Disconnecting in my mind
Keeping my emotions tied
The whole day long

But after twenty three odd hours a day
I come unwound and unrestrained
I finally let you go
For an hour or so

I go hang gliding
So I won’t forget
I go hang gliding
All the things about you I miss
I go hang gliding
When I need to be with you again
I go hang gliding
