Lyrics
Weightless
© ASCAP Allison, Ramsay
How many nights have I held at your gate?
To see if your lights were on
Till morning comes, I?ll just sit here and wait
Its only dark till dawn
?
Because I?m weightless
Hanging weightless, over you
You got me weightless
here on your wait list
?
Clinging the moment I met you
I fight this Vertigo
How many more nights till you love me too?
I guess I?ll never know
?
Because I?m weightless
Floating weightless, over you
You got me weightless
Always weightless
?
We fall in love from the outside in
But where I am is so without you
?
And if I cant come down
Please live life for me on the ground
?
A million nights I will hold at your gate
To see if your lights are on
?
Because I?m weightless
Floating weightless, over you
You got me weightless
Forever weightless
?
I cant find my way back down
Cant find my way...down
