lyrics

I can remember the night when we first met the sky
I know you felt a little scared, a little shy
Said it was someone else's gift, as you took flight
All I know is you lost your fear of heights that night


Sometimes we'd sneak out late at night, enjoy the view
Most of the time I had more fun enjoying you
Up in our private space above, alone, reserved
That compensation was the least that we deserved


Because we always had the sky, you and I
We always had the sky
We always had the sky, you and I

Secret identities and playing dress-up games
I used to worry we'd forgotten our real names
Spending our days and our nights in someone's fantasy
Why did you take so much responsibility


Maybe it looked like our whole life was action scenes
When I think back I miss the moments in-between
People adored us but they never really knew
I can't deny it's far less thrilling without you


But we will always have the sky, you and I
We will always have the sky
We will always have the sky, you and I


We traveled the world and elsewhere
Existing above in the open air
A bolt from the blue and now
I'm afraid there's no more time


I'm keeping busy and, you know, I can't complain
Once in a while it still hurts when it rains
They're all supportive but there's pity in their eyes
When I miss you I always come back to our skies


Cause we will always have the sky, you and I
We will always have the sky
We will always have the sky, you and I
