Our eyes will wander across this vacant wall, 
Stumble across the dusty floor, 
And we will hide beneath this blanket full of holes, 
Through which the cold has crawled 

It's way into our bones 
And we will fly into the Winter's night, 
Our tears will crystallise, 

And they will rain upon the frozen earth 
And people will smile when they stumble across them shining, 
They won't know why, 
They won't know why. 

Helby Baby, 
Tell me can you see, 
We're gonna soar, 
We're gonna be free, 

Nothing they can do can touch us now, 
Nothing they can do can touch us now. 

We're gonna soar amongst the universe, 
We're gonna be freer than the birds. 
We're gonna fly out where the sun won't shine, 

Shining down on everyone. 
And we will fly into the Winter's night, 
Our tears will crystallize, 

And they will rain upon the frozen earth 
And people will smile when they stumble across them shining, 
They won't know why, 
They won't know why.

They'll feel a glowing in their hearts, 
Feel a glowing in their hearts, 
They won't know why, 

Do do do do do 
Do do do do do 

They'll feel it shooting up their arms, 
They'll feel it explode across their minds like song. 

Do do do do do 
Do do do do do 
Do do do do do 
Do do do do do 
Do do do do do 
Do do do do do 
Do do do do do 
Do do do do do 

And we will fly into the Winter's night, 
Our tears will crystallize, 
And they will rain upon the frozen earth 
And people will smile when they stumble across them shining, 

They won't know why, 
They won't know why. 
And we will fly into the Winter's night, 
Our tears will crystallize, 

And they will rain upon the frozen earth 
And people will smile when they stumble across them shining, 
They won't know why, 
They won't know why.
