A Place To Land... (Male Vocal)

Lyrics
Verse 1
Lost in neon skies
I was flying high
On barstools and dance floors
Where heartache goes to die
I told myself I'm through with love
And toasted my new plan
With a warm wind at my back
I don't need a place to land

Verse 2
But I got too close to you
And your whisper led me through
The darkest hour of the night
To a light I never knew
You told me then that I was meant
To be your loving man
That you'd be waiting there
When I'd need a place to land

Chorus 1
You said, "Fold those wings
Cause boy, I'll help you see
All the painted skies are in your eyes
And when Heaven stirs the wind
I'll reach out my hand
Boy I'm giving you, a place to land"

Verse 3
Now the world that used to be
So much a part of me
Would barely recognize the man
Down on bended knee
Laughing with no parachute
A velvet box in hand
Girl you've got me falling
I need a place to land

Chorus 2
And I fold these wings
Cause girl, I finally see
All the painted skies are in your eyes
When Heaven stirred the wind
You reached out your hand
Girl you've given me, a place to land

Bridge
Touchdown soft and light
I've never known a feeling... so right

Chorus 3 (modulated)
And I fold these wings
Cause oooh... I finally see
All the painted skies are in your eyes
Maybe in the wind
Every feather has a plan
Girl you've given me, a place to land

Tag
I found a place to land
I found a place to land

– End –
