Is the school bell chiming?
Is that why you're making such haste?
Did you finally find a reason
To make a grand escape?
Can't see my friend
Why you'd go on living this way
When I feel your heart and your hope
Bleeding onto every page
Oh, and it goes
Like a Ferris wheel spinning round
No, she don't know
If she'll ever be coming down
Yet the skyline is so perfect
From fifty feet from the ground
If you're going to, do it gently
When you let her down
Do you still fear the thunder
But love running in the rain?
With her hand held so tightly
I swore she'd never slip away
Can't see my friend
Why you'd go on living this way
When I feel your heart and your hope
Bleeding onto every page
Oh, and it goes
Like a Ferris wheel spinning round
No, she don't know
If she'll ever be coming down
Yet the skyline is so perfect
From fifty feet from the ground
If you're going to, do it gently
When you let her down
