Lyrics

La la la, la la la, la la la la, the sky was falling
La la la, la la la, la la la la, Heaven was calling
La la la, la la la, la la la la, when danger crashes
La la la, la la la, la la la la, rose from the ashes
Like two statues hidden inside ancient rock
We were praying for the secrets to unlock
And when the sun had turned its back on us, oooh
In the dark, our love kept track of us, oooh
Pushed together by the lack of love, oooh oooh, run, run, run, run, run
La la la, la la la, la la la la, the sky was falling
La la la, la la la, la la la la, Heaven was calling
La la la, la la la, la la la la, when danger crashes
La la la, la la la, la la la la, rose from the ashes
We held each other tightly through our Hell of dreams
I still hear the never-endig echo of those screams
But it's a life not made for reliving, it's
A life that makes your soul forgiving, we
Sealed our bond from the beginning, oooh oooh, run, run, run, run, run
Aching, affection
Vulnerable protection
Falling, captured
Crawling, rapture
La la la, la la la, la la la la, the sky was falling
La la la, la la la, la la la la, Heaven was calling
La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la la, way
La, la
