Soft Place to Land

Kristen Hall/Mary Gauthier

Look at me, on the high wire

As I attempt to balance safety with desire

Step right up, get your tickets here

What you see should have you trembling with fear

Without a net, here I go

Ladies and gentlemen I promise you a show

As I?m crashing through the clouds I used to walk on

Reaching out for unfamiliar hands

Falling into the eyes of strangers

I wanna smile but I can?t

I?m looking for a soft place to land

When you?re up so high it?s hard to know

If you look foolish waving to the crowd below

It was plain, to everyone but me

Only a fool forgets the pull of gravity

But for a while, didn?t I fly?

Didn?t I shine like a star up in the sky?

Now I?m crashing through the clouds I used to walk on

Reaching out for unfamiliar hands

Falling into the eyes of strangers

I wanna cry but I can?t

I?m looking for a soft place to land

Bridge

I remember blue sky

I remember company

I remember laughter

I remember everything

As I?m crashing through the clouds I used to walk on

Reaching out for unfamiliar hands

Falling into the eyes of strangers

I wanna cry, but I can?t

I?m looking for a soft place to land

And it?s hard to find a soft place to land

Ain?t it hard to find a soft place to land
