In the July heat, I set my cold feet out in search of truth
Tracin' a freeway she came up to say
"Can I walk with you?"
♪
She confided that her heart could attack, I should really go
It was October, if God could know her, he'd mistake her dress for snow
Every year, I wait here, aloft on the wheel
And just for a flash we're up high like it's real
The shore lights were so bright
But, too soon, they leave
When we die could goodbye mean stay here with me
♪
She loved the stories and stayed up for me when I couldn't sleep
She sighed, you're crazy
But, you amaze me in February
And I know what I felt
And when the snow melts
Will you marry me?
Every year, I wait here, aloft on the wheel
And just for a flash we're up high like it's real
The shore lights were so bright
But, too soon, they leave
When we die could goodbye mean stay here with me
♪
Hey, let's go wavin' from high off the flowers
I'll help you stop aching before April showers
I'll sing like you like, dear
Just you and I, here and a ferris wheel tune
Let me freeze time, I want this every day
I'm so happy you're mine
I promise that I'll stay, then I felt her pulse leaving
Oh God, please keep breathing!
Heart attacked, her eyes had closed
And this time of year, now I've got nothin' down there
It's big but it's lonely, the prettiest cold air
With pages lit for me, I'm writing a story called "Stars That Look Like You"
♪
Every year, I wait here, aloft on the wheel
And just for a flash we're up high like it's real
The shore lights were so bright
But, too soon, they leave
When we die could goodbye mean stay here with me
And so on a night like this
I cannot fight this feeling that you're here
Sleepless with me, dear
Wherever you are, it's never too far
If you fear you'll float off
Come take a load off, Rose
