Howard Blake - Walking in the Air

 

We're walking in the air
We're floating in the moonlit sky
The people far below are sleeping as we fly

 

I'm holding very tight 
I'm riding in the midnight blue 
I'm finding I can fly so high above with you

 

On across the world 
The villages go by like dreams 
The rivers and the hills, the forests and the streams

 

Children gaze open mouthed
Taken by surprise
Nobody down below believes their eyes

We're surfing in the air 
We're swimming in the frozen sky 
We're drifting over icy mountains floating by

 

Suddenly swooping low
On an ocean deep
Rousing up a mighty monster from his sleep

 

And walking in the air
We're dancing in the midnight sky
And everyone who sees us greets us as we fly

 

추락하는 것에 날개가 있다고 누가 그랬던가.

한 겨울에 떨어지는 눈송이를 따라

시야는 어두운 하늘 위로 향하고

얼어 붙은 바람은 가벼운 날개처럼.

 

다, 전부 다, 잊어버려라.

망각하는 만큼 떠오를 수 있는 법.

이때 날아오르는 것은 하룻밤의 몽상이다.
