Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone, my senses reeled
Fatal attraction is holding me fast
How can I escape this irresistible grasp?
Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
Tongue tied and twisted
Just an earth-bound misfit, I

Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings
I thought I'd thought of everything
No navigator to find my way home
Unladen, empty and turned to stone

A soul in tension that's learning to fly
Condition grounded, but determined to try
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue tied and twisted
Just an earth-bound misfit, I

Easy on the brakes. Take it easy. Its gonna roll this time.
Just hand the power gradually, and it...-

Above the planet on a wing of a prayer
My grubby halo, a vapor trail in the empty air
Across the clouds, I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul
Right through the roof of the night

There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Can't keep my mind from the circling skies
Tongue tied and twisted
Just an earth-bound misfit, I
