lyrics

Lai, Lai , Lai, Lai , Lai ...

It was all a sheet of water
Skated around on my feet
To the sky there fell a ladder
And it's shadow underneath
There's nothing really to see here
Just a choice of up or down
Just to choose if you're in or out or in between
If you are silent
If you are sound.

Lai, Lai , Lai, Lai , Lai ...

So I skated around on the water
As far as the eye could see
Wave after wave kept crashing in
But my feet they stayed straight
If you only knew how free you were
If you only knew how deep
If you only knew how free you were
You'd close your eyes to see.

Lai, Lai , Lai, Lai , Lai ...

Rise in my cloud
Bring the water down
I love you so eagerly.
Your in my heart like a little bird
Flown out to sea.
